Some projects only give you .tar.gz, what am I supposed to do with them? Is this what people call building from source? Am I supposed to move it to /opt and extract it in Debian based distros? Does this also work on Arch based ones?

Sure, if that’s where it’s from, that makes sense that’s what it would be.
If they don’t provide build instructions, you may be on your own.
