MacPorts is a better long-term experience than Homebrew.
It takes the BSD ports approach, where all packages are maintained together in a centralized repository. The Homebrew approach is closer to a bunch of PPA's and other independently maintained stuff of questionable integration status.
If all you've tried is Homebrew, then I'm not surprised at the reaction.
