If you use apps from the App Store, they will be sandboxed.
If you download apps elsewhere, they may or may not be sandboxed. It’s an opt-in thing.
Whether you choose to have guaranteed Sandboxing from the App Store but at the cost of Apple’s increased meddling is up to you.
I heard there is an option of using brew… What are your thoughts? I’m new to all things Mac.
Brew applications are also unsandboxed unless the app developer chose to opt-into sandboxing.
Personally, I while I love sandboxing, I chose to use brew and other third-party installation methods because I didn’t want to use the App Store (and actually couldn’t unless I signed in using an Apple account, which I didn’t want to do).
