I've used apt, dnf, pkcon, zypper, #NetBSD pkgin, #FreeBSD pkg, #OpenBSD pkg, flatpak, snap, rpm, yum, and homebrew.
pacman has the most obtuse syntax. I have a couple options memorized, 3-4 more in my crib notes, and the rest is hunting through the manpage. :P
I don't give up yet.

I'm upgrading #NetBSD on my laptop to the latest RC (11.0 RC4) in this coffee shop, soaking up all the Wi-Fi bandwidth downloading source sets which I didn't realize are not on the install image but need to be downloaded on the fly.
Casually reading The UNIX Programming Environment by Kernighan and Pike. I've been Linuxing for nearly 30 years, so it's not like I'm a stranger to this environment, but it's nice to peruse one of its sacred texts.
