Pacman vs. Discover
#4
Things like Discover (in KDE) and Software (in Gnome/Phosh) is nice for newcomers to Linux in general, but I think they both need at least a couple of years more before they become more stable.
The best way of installing software (and actually 90% of all the tasks you'd do on a PC, and thus smartphone) will always be the terminal.
Those of us who have been long time Linux users are very comfortable with it, though I can easily understand that your average Windows, macOS, iOS, or Android user would want a Google Play-like GUI solution instead just to be able to get things done.

But I'd recommend you update through the command line, since it's faster, nicer, more stable, and will be beneficial to you in the long run (by that I mean if you don't fall back to the big 2+2).
