Review pkgx?

pkgx has received mixed reviews. While some users appreciate its speed and cross-platform capabilities, others criticize the rebranding from Tea, citing poor communication and disruption to existing installations. A maker from tea highlights pkgx's focus on simplifying package management by eliminating traditional installation steps, allowing users to run software directly. They also praise its sandboxing feature, which automatically manages dependencies in virtual environments. Despite some negative feedback, many users find pkgx to be a promising tool for streamlining development workflows.

Don’t know what to think. I’ve been using Tea for months with about 8 packages installed. Today I decided to update Tea itself (via update menu option within the GUI) and bam…the app disappeared from my apps folder with no trace of what happened. Now I see Tea has been replaced with pkgx (on Product Hunt and Github, not my computer), however some type of warning or info would have been helpful.
