This might be controversial, but manual popped is better than microwave.
I can’t think of a single thing that the microwave does better than it’s traditional counterpart.
It’s pretty much understood that you’re going to give up a little bit of quality in return for time saving and convenience. That’s like the whole thing.
I don’t even own a microwave (technically I do but it’s mothballed somewhere in my shed). I just cut the bag open and pour the content into a large cast iron pot with a lid.
You should just get the popcorn kennels and pop them with oil. You can toss in the seasonings whenever, popcorn is very forgiving
It’s a lot cheaper, plus the bag liners are one of the types of plastic that tend to leech a lot of microplastics

I can’t imagine that’s controversial (I hope). Microwave is simply more convenient.
