I update my packages every day on debian. I have yet to have something break. The only issue I ever had was steam got uninstalled when dist-upgrading from debian 11 to 12. Promptly reinstalled, of course all my games were still on disk.

alias updog='sudo apt update | lolcat && sudo apt upgrade -y | lolcat'
for when I feel like making sure
