Try installing something from homebrew.

Oh you just want to install this one package here? Ok but let’s update 60 other packages first. Don’t worry, it will only take about one minute. Per package.

Bruh have fun on x86_64 since you have to compile them all (at least I had to, I might have broken something)

I installed Mono on my M1 MBP last year and it took like four hours to compile 💀

When I was new to linux and got a raspberry pi 1. I was following some random guide to put retroarch on the pi. I did not know what I was doing, but it took at least 24 hours if not more.

Years later I realized that the guide had me compiling it from source instead of just installing a precompiled package.

Try Nix instead of Homebrew.

Real talk I’ve been using this I’ve mashed together:

update_brew() {
    bold=$(tput bold);
    normal=$(tput sgr0);
    brew --version &&
    echo "${bold} > brew update${normal}" &&
    brew update &&
    echo "${bold} > brew upgrade${normal}" &&
    brew upgrade &&
    echo "${bold} > brew autoremove${normal}" &&
    brew autoremove &&
    echo "${bold} > brew cleanup${normal}" &&
    brew cleanup &&
    echo "${bold} > brew doctor${normal}" &&
    brew doctor;
}
