I generally agree but I'm heading back from a trip to Russia and I was surprised by how good Keenetic's [0] equipment was. It's a brand that apparently only operates in Russia, Ukraine and Turkey.
I was impressed because of how clean and workable the stock web UI is, as well as how many features it has. They have some of the more obscure normal things like IGMP proxying (with a very user-friendly UI for configuring it) but what really impressed me was that it even had WireGuard support as an official installable package.
I'll stick with my UBNT gear at home but still, for a consumer brand Keenetic is pretty nice.
I've just installed openwrt on mikrotik hap ac router. Damn that thing is nice. The UI is way more user friendly and expandable. Built-in pi-hole analog (adblock) works just fine, wpa3 support is also there. And all that is installed in just a few clicks.
