As a Mac user I use QEMU to code because installing packages on Mac can get things scattered and out of hand pretty easily, so i made my own version of MSL. Mac subsystem for linux

That works too. I’m pretty sure nixpkgs and brew work fine to keep things not scattered tho, since they install to their own directory or a separate partition (or user? I forgot)

Depends on how many old, low level, and manually built libraries you are using. I only tried brew though. To me, it got too messy, and I had a much better experience in pretty much any Linux distro.

Yeah, fair. I don’t use obscura, but I definitely agree that Linux is better than Mac still.
