if some color and additional hints is all you need, this may be a competitor:

alias ll='ls -lahF --color=auto'

This is the first alias I create on any os I use daily.

Although I order the switches as `halF` as it's easier to remember for quick one-off use on servers (and containers). It's practically muscle memory for me now.

I must be one of the few, but I rarely like color output. And then some throw in underline or bold, but in e.g. ls (or exa) almost none of the make-up adds information, yet everything shouts for attention. I turn most of it off, rather than on.
