    xbps felt like a million characters to type which I hated

    Ever heard of alias?

    For me it's alias pks='xbps-query -Rs' and alias pki='xbps-install' (package search and package install).

      I don't want to sound like a jerk, and I say this with all due respect for Void, which I kind of like, but...

      If your argument against a command needing too many keystrokes is "use alias" then you've already lost. Even you think it's too long. Thats why you use alias...

        Before Void I was using Debian (then Devuan), and I used aliases for the package manager commands there too.

        Anyway, I think the "the program name is too long" argument is even worse.

          I use aliases too, and I (mostly) use Fedora. Alias is a great tool. I also think "the program name is too long" is a pretty silly argument. We're on the same page there. All I meant was that "just use alias" isn't really a rebuttal to that particular point.
