To be perfectly honest, auto updates aren’t really necessary; I’m just lazy and like automation. One less thing I’ve gotta remember to do regularly.
I find it kind of fun to discover and explore new features on my own as they appear. If I need documentation, it’s (usually…) there, but I’d rather just explore. There are a few projects where I’m avidly following the forums/git pages so I’m at least aware of certain upcoming features, others update whenever they feel like it and I’ll see what’s new next time I happen to be messing with them.
Watchtower notifies me whenever it updates something so I’ve at least got a history log.

Every 5mins seems insane. Why do you need to schedule it that frequently?

I definitely don’t need to but it also costs nothing and retention policy only keeps 5 minute backups for an hour. Then I really back up for a day. Daily backups for a week, etc. Up to 2 years
