I couldn't find any alternatives from other brands that come anywhere close. Columbia has some cheap ones, but without thumb slots and they feel cheaper, and don't fit as well. (More of a fishing look)

there's an adventure Allen YouTube hoodie test against 20+ hoodies - OR Echo beats out Patagonia in most metrics
However, all my friends loved them, so I finally gave them a shot last year. During sales of various brands (Columbia/MH, Outdoor Research, UnderArmour, etc.) I got their nicest ones and compared them. After several months and close to a dozen types, this is my favorite for moderate to warm temperatures, and the Patagonia Capilene Cool Daily is my favorite for hot temperatures.
The fit is great, the fabric is very soft (I've had people ask the brand after giving me a hug) and breathable while still being a little warm if you put a layer on top of it when the sun goes down. I bought two more yesterday when I saw this sale went live.

Obviously, a more dense weave should give more theoretical protection, but I'm a pale fella, and I've worn my Capilene hoodie in direct sunlight with no sunscreen underneath on the sideline for 5+ hours, and I didn't see/feel any indication of sun exposure on my shoulders, neck, or arms.
I'm sure there's a difference in some scenarios (like the fabric stretched over something and staying static the entire time), and I know I'm getting at least a tiny amount of UV exposure, but in real-world usage, it provides more than enough protection for me to use/recommend it.
Ahh whatever, I'll just get the cheaper tnf.
