I know it's available, but I always assumed it would be a 2nd class citizen.
I just tried to install in on my personal macOS system. I tried brew, as Microsoft gives instructions for it...
Warning: powershell has been deprecated because it does not pass the macOS Gatekeeper check! It will be disabled on 2026-09-01.
It went on to do more and then prompted for my password, but I canceled out of it. I'm not looking to get started with anything that starts with a deprecation warning. This is what I'm talking about when I say it feels like a 2nd class citizen. I can only assume I can't use 100% Powershell to admin a system, like one could with Windows.

PowerShell is available for Linux and MacOS. Which means you can have the tool you like and run on a non-MS platform.
