New question re: an “all posts” loop

Disclaimer: it’s unclear to me, partly because I’m new to block themes, whether this is a Beaumont question, or block themes question, or a WordPress question. Obviously if either of the latter, feel free to ignore this altogether in this forum.

In my trying to assemble a sort of “all posts” loop for an /archive page, it’s basically fully functional, but I notice that the pagination links look like

archive/?query-10-page=2

rather than something like

archive/page/2

like you’d see in on the native date- and taxonomy-based archive pages.

Is this a theme limitation, or a WordPress limitation? Or am I simply missing a way to have this doing pagination links the normal way?

Thanks.
