i decided to see the 100th item often to see anything changed. this is not a correct method but helps to quickly check for new entrants.
found goldendict in the 100th place. it supports multiple dictionaries.
lot of changes in the top 100. may be because i am checking after long time.
wonder what does the red lettered packges mean.
noted betterbird, allegedly better than thunderbird. going to check that out.
It is flagged out of date

thanks dalto,
means, it will be removed from repos, soon !
Maybe not removed from AUR, but the dev simply has not updated the packages for some reason. The dev may update it in the future, or not, we have no definitive way of telling.
You might want to look at the AUR page to see if there are any related comments or reasoning why the particular has not been updated.

If it is in the AUR, then it’s not in the repos. It can’t be removed from somewhere where it is not. The AUR is not a repository of packages, it’s a repository of user-made PKGBUILDs.
What happens to out-of-date packages? They may become orphaned and somebody else might take over their maintenance. Or they may remain out of date for a long time. Rarely, they get deleted.

thanks for taking the time in making the distinction glaring for me to understand.
opentofu appeared for the first time in the top 100 i think. some nvidia stuff catching the 100th spot. lot of flutter stuff all over the top … soon this may go. onlyoffice seems to be more popular the libreoffice
libreoffice is in the repos so the version most people install won’t be in a top AUR list.
