I like apt for its syntax, I like yay for it's speed and ease compared to pacman.

Pacman has absurd option syntax, I think to deliberately make it feel exclusive. If the first thing you need to do is create a bunch of aliases or a crib sheet for basic things then it's a terrible user experience.

Kubuntu comes with Apt, and from time to time I use Nala too.
