Prism Launcher has been my go-to ever since it first released, after the PolyMC hostile takeover. They've pushed out a lot of quality-of-life updates like being able to download and update mods from the common mod repositories straight in the launcher. Modpack installation is super easy whether it's CurseForge or Modrinth. The only downside I can think of is that you have to install Java yourself, but honestly that's pretty straight forward.
If you are on linux you shouldn’t have to install java yourself afaik.
Oh right, that advice would just be for the poor Windows users. Use your package manager on Linux.
I've been using chocolately when on Windows for automatically installing java (also prismlauncher, it'll grab the temurin java package(s) for you during it). Not exactly the same as a Linux package manager, but it works well enough and has basically every app that I need to install.
