No one here is going to run through your entire package list and determine if they are compatible with Garuda.

Give your head a shake.

If you want to install a ton of extra packages fill your boots. Just do your own homework don't expect others to do it for you.

Search the AUR for each individual package or there is always the possibility the package is available as a snap or flatpak.

Do your own research.
