I say this as someone who's been playing in a 2e campaign for the past two and a half years and has been GMing one the past year and largely greatly prefers PF2e to 5e. There are some great elements in 2e like degrees of success, the three action economy, lots of customization options, great GM support, and Paizo overall being a better company that Hasbro. But let's not kid ourselves here: Pathfinder is just reskinned DnD. Heroic fantasy where you roll a d20 and add a modifier.
No, that's a d20 system heroic fantasy system. D20s arent even a permanent part of DnD, just its current iteration. If you wanted to be reductionist, you could just say that these all TTRPGs are just board games with smaller boards and larger rulebooks, and that those are just gambling games because they use dice. Pathfinder is similar, 1e was an extension of 3.5e, but at this point I'd consider them well past a reskin.
