How can I manually keep these programs up to date? Is there a command or an option in the applications or do I have to check the website for updates? Sorry for the stupid questions, I just don’t know anything about it.

Thanks, I’ll update it from time to time when I need it.

Thanks for the answer. I was unsure whether it could be dangerous to the PC itself if you ignore the updates for both operating systems.

Yes, I’ve also read about problems with dual-boot systems after Windows updates, which is why I’ve refused to use Windows too often to make the updates worthwhile.

If a company called TikTok can survive and thrive, surely one called Mastodon can too.

What I really like about Linux (Mint) is the automation of updates. I had a similar feature enabled on Windows (10), but I still had to install most of it manually. With Linux (Mint) the automation works wonderfully and I have no stress. Another reason not to go back to Windows.
