It doesn't work like that:
I like Cinnamon but dislike mint so i ship with Cinnamon everything. I've got a VM with Arch on Cinnamon and a laptop with Debian with Cinnamon

I use Arch Linux, with XFCE as the DE but i3 as the window manager.

apt-get is a horrible package manager.
If you are a new user, it will just spit out a lot of text that you won't read and thus not keeping you informed of the process.
If there is dependencies, it will make you confirm an installation, if there isn't it won't.
The tools the average user needs to use is very disjointed and thus makes it a worse experience to use.
apt-get uses a hyphen which means you can't auto complete as easy although apt fixes this.
It is really slow. Compared to other distributions, installing and updating takes more time.
It pulls documentation by default, which can use a lot of space, eg texlive packages.
It doesn't show version numbers of the packages when you update before it is installing it so you might accidentally revert to an old package if a ppa is moved.

I mean, it is far from perfect.
I solve it by adding a bunch of aliases and just ignore the output unless I encounter an error.

If you like terrible documentation and not having packages on Debian or arch scale
