One of many reasons I left Debian behind for desktop things over a decade ago. I love the project and appreciate the history, but things can get pretty long in the tooth after awhile. Flatpaks help.

I wish Debian had an Arch style bleeding edge fork. Till then I've been happy using Arch, I had my last straw when a program needed a more up to date GLIBC on Debian. That's such a can of worms to resolve, I just went ahead and gave Endeavour (Arch based) a try and havent gone back or changed distros ever since.

If someone ever makes a Debian distro that is bleeding edge and supports Nvidia drivers (basically a more bleeding edge Ubuntu) I'd be all ears.

Just download the source and build the binaries you need. I use GNU stow as a parallel package manager within /usr/local that plays nice with the rest of the OS. It isn't hard for most sane programs with proper build scripting.
