Yay orphaned packages (lemmy.world)

The past few times I’ve run yay I’ve got these warnings about packages that are orphaned/not in the AUR. Based on the names I’m assuming these are leftover from the upgrade from kde plasma 5 to 6, are these safe to remove now? And secondly how would I find orphaned packages like that if I wasn’t using yay since I never installed these from the AUR?

That used to be in the repositories I'm pretty sure and the aur package is pretty new, so I guess yay migrated it to use the aur one somehow instead of replacing it with krunner for the plasma 6 update?

And that probably applies to those others too
