Yeah, what I don't care for (among others) is that when I type "brew install something" it also upgrades every package on my system and my postgres instance can't start until the databases have been upgraded (which may fail). I know the reason they give for doing this, but no other package manager does it and its a terrible default behavior.
Can’t you set it to not do this. Even more cant you pin packages to not update at all.
I don’t think my set up upgrades everything. I install stuff still but haven’t upgraded anything in months possibly. Brew outdated command shows dozens and dozens of packages fhat need to be upgraded.
Not sure what I did.

I don’t know why everyone loves one package manager that’s also everything for your OS like typical Linux package managers. Things get pretty chaotic. I’m not saying homebrew is the solution. Just Linux package managers seem overhyped
