File manager... for MacOS?

Every day I'm contemplating buying a Macbook Pro more and more. I wonder if any of you know of a good file manager that doesn't make me regret XYplorer (which I'll probably still use in a VM if needed).

Well, I'm missing XY on my Mac! There's no equivalent.
But "Commander One" is a nice two-pane filemgr and Forklift also seemed quite good, I ended up registering C1.

Thank you MBaas! I'm trying C1 right now, and I'll also install ForkLift and see...
One thing is sure: after 11 years with XY, changing habits will be tough!

I've put the order for a MacBook Pro M2 as my new business notebook today (*) and started searching for "at-least-reminds-me-of-XYplorer"-candidates.
Taken the results of several searches, just by the feature list, here's my first top 3 list for trials:
1. ForkLift 3
AdHoc questions:
- is the non App Store distribution model a pro or con in the long run?
- can I add triggers for own scripts?
2. Path Finder
AdHoc question:-
- is there any detailed feature list?
- can I add triggers for own scripts?
3. Well, didn't find anything worth a "real" trial (simple two pane stuff isn't worth the time).
Which is the most comprehensive one? Using XYplorer for more than 10 years I can't ask for the "best" one.
*: I do think Lenovo basically offer good products (especially on the keyboard side), but the "Intel Gen X" stuff older than Alder Lake ist total crap - crap efficiency and crappy cooling. :-(
