Dont you have to reinstall mint if you want to install os updates?

No. Both day to day patches and major upgrades are done through the update manager app

I have no idea. I wound up removing Linux from my system years ago due to Pulse/ALSA problems and going back to Windows. Not willing to pay a subscription for extended Win10 support, and I won't touch 11, so I'm looking at moving back to Linux. Especially since audio is supposed to be better now.

I think they have an automated script that does it now?

GUI is primary, a few clicks in the same app that you do your normal day to day updates in when a major release comes out.

There is a command line version but the gui is a doddle, and there's no driving reason to use the CLI - it's a distro aimed at beginners
