In my experience the AUR is useful but almost unnecessary, and if you want to use flatpak you can get away from using the AUR entirely

I use bookshop.org for books, some of the profits go to Indy bookshops.

Otherwise I use Amazon like a search provider, find the item I like then go straight to retailer or manufacturers website.

There it's used more as a preservative than anything else

Yeah totally, I think to use Arch successfully you need an opinion about what your system needs, and that takes experience with using Linux.

Installation is pretty trivial these days with the install script

Ironically this is how I feel about Arch, for me it's worked flawlessly for years.

I don't bother getting in 'discussions' about using it, because if other people have problems I'm not going to convince them that I don't.

I was comparing Signal to WhatsApp, not to Telegram

Signal isn't owned and run by Meta though is it.
