Are there any plans on making PHP 8 a normal apt repository?
If you don’t want to use docker, I’d suggest looking at PHP Brew or phpenv

How did you setup LEMP on mac?
Note that it won’t be practical for all cases. If you really want to run native services and multiple environments just use Homebrew to install stuff and an env manager like phpenv.

How can I use php7.2 and php7.3 in the same system on Arch Linux? AUR packages.
I advise you to learn about docker, but yes, there is a tool like nvm, that is https://github.com/phpenv/phpenv

I've got a server running Debian 10 with PHP 8 installed -- but I want to use an API that requires PHP 7 or 5.6. Any way to install 2 versions of PHP, or downgrade to 7??
I've not tried it, but https://github.com/phpenv/phpenv might be what you need. I use the Java, Groovy, Python and node versions of this, and they work extremely well.

Does anyone have/know of any tools to change PHP versions on ARCH like archlinux-java?

Best Approaches to Install PHP on Pop_OS/Ubuntu/Linux
I use phpenv personally, but using the official PPAs at https://deb.sury.org/ is the most maintainable. phpenv lets you set a PHP version per folder, globally, or even temporarily. I am constantly switching between PHP versions during the day and it was easier than messing around with update-alternatives (contrast with Java, where I use update-alternatives because the version switching is much less day-to-day for me)
