Specifically, a dedicated server running Debian 12.

After a monthly sudo apt upgrade? (Is a monthly upgrade even necessary?)

Never? (unless there is a security update?)

Edit: I may be missing kernel upgrades. Those are probably good... I can't remember if I installed a LTS kernel. I imagine it would be unsecure to post an exact kernel version, however.

        I use unattended-upgrades on Debian to upgrade and reboot when necessary.
