I used to use milestone but tried XP when I switched from 5e to Pathfinder 2e. Honestly I like the effect that XP has on players. They will do more side quests and just generally play the game more as a breadth-first search rather than just chasing whatever the next main objective is. It helps that in pf2e the encounter math is highly balanced for XP based levelling.
