"curl -sSL https://zerobrew.rs/install | bash"

cool cool cool

@gemelen @orhun It’s just homebrew but faster, it has the same shortcomings otherwise.

I’d like a speed increase on MacPorts, especially the selfupdate is irresponsibly slow.

@jornane

My comment is on a general acceptance of running random stuff straight out of the internet.

@orhun does it still need sudo to install?
@orhun I’ll check it out. Appreciate your effort on this! Will take a lot to win me over from MacPorts though.
@orhun Oh, this’ll be useful on my 2008 Mac Pro. That thing struggles with Homebrew but is just fine running Autodesk Maya, lmao (apart from the actual render that takes forever).
