There's this aptly-named utility that I'm currently using:

I do think GUI is the way to go for "typical" usage, but if you wanted to set up a faster way to run a command you use often, you would create an alias to handle a complex command or something you do often.
For example, I have 'updateall' as my command to run 'sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade && flatpak update'. Why not GUI for this? I like to see what's going on during my updates. It's also kind of satisfying for some reason.
Anyway, I suspect your problem then would end up being not running a syntax, assuming it even exists, but the correct syntax, which I often encounter, but that's what 'history | grep' is for.
I did my first Linux Steam hardware survey yesterday so I'm doing my part!
