latest version packeges on mint - eviltoast

I have started using linux for 6 months since I leave Windows and already tried ubuntu, arch and liked mint besides arch AUR be so useful, but because I have had some issues with rolling release I choose mint, and I sometimes need latest package, there is somehow to install without being though appimage and tarball?

    Yeah if they want to update system packages it’s where things end up in dependency hell. You want newer X, it needs newer Y, it needs newer Z and it’s a a library half the packages of the system depends on and the rest of the system goes boom.

    It’s actually why I went to Arch, I need to hold back packages way more rarely than I want newer everything else.
