I feel the developer experience has improved substantial, mostly because homebrew is simply amazingly stable and up-to-date. I don't care about the build-in ruby or git because it's replaced immediately anyway. I guess the experience is different for people doing system-level C.

But this is a /workaround/ for the base system being poorly maintained. Apple provide Ruby, Python, and a whole host of other languages and tools on the base system. There's little excuse for them not to keep it up to date and functional. The default "experience" is miserable.
