Is there any bar for Sway similar to the panels of KDE / Xfce / Gnome2 / Windows ? I wish to always see on my screen which windows I have open, shown and focused.
It's possible I most bars/panels, I reckon. The screenshot comes from nwg-panel.

Would it be technically possible for an arch server to build and serve aur packages to other machines/distros?
Debian has the MPR https://mpr.makedeb.org/

Debian User Repository MPR AUR for Debian

Doesn’t using a different package manager defeat the purpose of Debian?
I know the MPR is a thing, but I've always found it unwieldy to use.
-
LURE development progress update (December 2021)
So the main difference from something like MPR is that it does that same thing, but for more packages, not only .deb files?
-
Newer packages on PopOS?
Regarding system repositores, it's generally best to avoid tampering with system repositories like this because it'll cause problems with release upgrades down the line. But if you really want to, look into https://mpr.makedeb.org/ with the expectation that a release upgrade with these packages installed will most likely fail.

PSA: For all you ex-Arch users out there, check out `makedeb` and `lure` for all of your out-of-band software needs
makedeb - Like makepkg, but produces installable *.deb files. There are already lots of packages in the MPR

Introducing Mist: An AUR-helper like application for Debian and Ubuntu based systems
Mist is powered by the MPR, an AUR-like repository that's also for Debian and Ubuntu based systems (of which I'm also the project lead for, as well as the makedeb project listed below). In short, it uses pretty much the same PKGBUILD format that you'd see on Arch Linux, but uses them to build .deb packages instead of Arch Linux packages.
