Sure, that’s fair, but then you shouldn’t go around saying “those distributions make it harder to mess with your computer”. Your criticism seems to instead be “I can’t use the tooling and processes I already know”, which again is fair, but definitely a separate issue.
You’re going to have the same issue with any distribution that uses a different package manager, and it wouldn’t be fair to e.g. Alpine to say “it makes it harder to mess with my system since I can’t use apt or dnf”.
I didn’t want to learn their approach, I just wanted to install a software.
