@double_a_runi I was using OS X locally and linux only on servers until quite recently! Then I rapidly abandoned Mac for Windows and then rapidly abandoned Windows for Linux.
But also, yeah, you can use Homebrew on Linux, if you're feeling adventurous… https://docs.brew.sh/Homebrew-on-Linux
@mcc curl to bash to install, looks promising.
sorry I have nothing useful to reply, I've used brew to install lima on macos, so I can have linux in there, but not beyond that. I don't know how it works, and what kind of conflicts it can have.
