E: Package 'vlc' has no installation candidate ...

 How do you install vlc on Debian BUllseye?

 these are the relatively weird problems I am having and I couldn't
find much about them specifically online:

Use 'apt autoremove' to remove them.

Package vlc is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source
