The person you're replying to was presumably talking about a vacation town in the US. Double taxation, by the way, is only an issue if an American makes over $100,000 per year in their foreign job.
That doesn't make sense. Why do I need Homebrew to install the command line tools of macOS on macOS? Doesn't macOS already have them installed? Same for Linux, etc.
Replace "need" with "want" and it might make more sense?
Homebrew is the Mac equivalent of APT, Pacman, RPM, BSD ports, etc. It's a fairly traditional package manager for software that doesn't come with macOS. "brew install postgresql" installs Postgres into /opt/homebrew, for example.
I use Shopify app every day, multiple times a day to run my business and it has always been buggy and inconsistent for me on Android, and I don't expect this will make it any better, especially with more AI in the mix, but we shall see.
Who wants to bet there still won't be a dark mode?
If not, use something like WireGuard (or Tailscale) and bind only to that interface.
You can also change the default port, your logs will quiet down dramatically.
Lastly, if you have a long enough passphrase with enough entropy/randomness, password authentication being enabled is probably fine, you can also set only a specific user allowed to SSH for additional hardening.
"fun" is kinda the last thing I want with my (small) business infra.
It should be rock solid, relatively inexpensive, and from a reliable company with some expected longevity. I want it to be boring, no surprises, never think about it because it Just Works (r).
Your work-specific WiFi network can also be shut off at the same time.
Devices go in a sleeve or drawer in your desk, which is usually in a separate room.
You can also close the door.
If you need more work and personal life separation than this, you might need a new job.
