Humble question: how do you find out if your system has been affected by a malware?

I know that for AUR there was a specific list of affected packages (that I checked, and haven't installed any of them), but I'm interested more in a general way. It could be from AUR, npm, or many other sources. Some malware could break and lock immediately the system, but other could stay there silent for months, so how to find out if there is any?

I haven't run an antivirus since I last used Windows 20 years ago.
