June 30th, 2024, will bring the End of Life (EOL) of CentOS Linux
It will not automatically remove dependencies that were installed along with a package when that package is removed. I'm guessing this is due to some historical ideology about how `apt-get` was intended to function. I just typically run `apt remove foobar && apt -y autoremove`.
There is also nala, which _does_ automatically remove dependencies when you remove a package: https://github.com/volitank/nala

Mint vs Arch
i use debian on some remote servers and, thankfully found this, which i immediately installed https://github.com/icy/pacapt because i have no idea how to successfully use apt. plus, i hate the formatting. so, nala is a positive, for sure!

I tried Arch Linux for the first time
You can do --sync --search but that isn't much better. There is this neat tool however: https://github.com/icy/pacapt I recently used it because I was in a hurry and had not time to read up on SLES and an ancient CentOS install I was forced to deal with. But I guess you had the opposite in mind.

Why is it so hard to take a screenshot!?
The Arch Rosetta page spawned the lovely https://github.com/icy/pacapt , which is an automated form I use everywhere despite not actually having used Arch in years.
