'Torrc does not exist
I am installing tor on mac using brew install tor. After I install and run tor I get an error that Configuration file "/opt/homebrew/etc/tor/torrc" not present, using reasonable defaults. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling tor but nothing seems to work. Is there anyway to fix this?

Not a Mac user here, but a default torrc file is probably not installed when you install Tor from brew. You have to configure it yourself, or go with the "reasonable defaults" that connect as a client.
Check for /opt/homebrew/etc/tor/torrc.sample and rename to torrc and edit for your needs.
If you can't find one, grab the sample torrc here: https://gitweb.torproject.org/tor.git/tree/src/config/torrc.sample.in For other configuration options, check out the Tor manual.
