Oh yeah python installs on macOS have been nightmares to deal with. Check out uv! It's not installed with brew (just a one liner script on their repo) but it's the sanest way I know to use python as a dev on macOS. In that vein you can check out fnm (fast node manger) which is on brew and feels like a modern nvm/nodenv without some of the quirks they've had. I try to keep my brew installs generally light just so it's clearer to me what I'm actually installing vs the dependencies they have (like imagemagick has dooooozens of deps). Normally I try to do a regular backup of my Brewfile in my dotfiles so I could just reinstall everything in one go but I've been bouncing around so many different tools this year that I just forgot. But it does feel nice having a clean slate!!! Oh also mas is a great compliment to brew. It's brew-like cli for the App Store though you have to navigate it a bit differently because the namespace doesn't guarantee unique entries. My general flow is `mas search <thing I'm looking for>` give it a sec to dump results. If the top result is what I'm looking for then I'll install via `mas lucky <thing I'm looking for>`. Otherwise I have to copy the app ID integer and install it with that. Usually top result is it! Neat thing about this is that brew will also include it in the Brewfile so you can automate the installation of App store apps as well.

I would gladly install a trojan if I knew it was written in Rust
