Any tips for quality or best value aftermarket ones?
I've had success with Clarks, which are usually significantly cheaper than the OE Shimano ones.
some people say you need to match pads with rotors manufacturers as much as possible, is that a thing?
Not really, bicycle brakes are low tech and low performance. Nobody is actually getting any marginal gains by tweaking rotor composition, because they are buying their rotor material from commodity steel stockholders, not custom mills.

Understood.
