Why the -y after apt update? I've never had to do that on mint
Automatically agrees to everything. Can be dangerous, use with caution. If you're able to, I wouldn't use it.
Oh yeah, I actually have a very simple bash script that includes apt upgrade -y (sketchy I know lol). But apt update just updates the sources so doesn't require the -y as far as I know
