I am old and dumb. My fren installed Linux Mint on my laptop and it works fine. I have over 100 updates waiting for action, but I don't know which ones I want or even need. I am a low-end user, I use my puter mainly for Poal and Youtube, not work stuff. Should I just enable automatic updates? I don't want a bunch of useless crap on my harddrive I will never need. Appreciate any input.

Thanks...unless someone says otherwise I will enable auto updates and hope for the best.

Use Clonezilla to make a full HDD backup. And have an extDD for your important file backups anyway.
