Or asked the other way around: How long do you keep your servers running without installing any software updates?

update means something like

sudo dnf update

or something …

apt-get upgrade
apt-get update

    I do sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade

    Is there any reason to not combine the commands since the output always prompts prior to changes anyway?

      I think their point was to make sure they are done in order, i.e. update before upgrade, not the other way around as in OPs example.
