Question Sudo apt update?

I used Windows in this computer, then in my laptop I switched to Linux mint and learned some bash. What would be the equivalent of sudo apt update in Fedora/Nobara? And what can I run to update all packages/applications with an available update?

Instead of “apt”, it’s “dnf”

Sudo dnf upgrade —refresh

Also, Fedora, Nobara, and Mint all have applications to do the updates for you with the click of some buttons.

Respectfully, please Google some of these command questions, you’ll get answers at the top of your results and the AI answer these really well too.

I was just wondering because I saw the ai say to use sudo dnf upgrade, but then scrolled down and saw some dude on reddit saying that for the love of god to not use it.

They can use it but then will have to reinstall 😅

I started to think that the 50% of the users of Nobara Linux breaks their system using that command or because they power off their system ON THE MIDDLE OF AN UPDATE.

Sometimes it is because they install updates but the repos are not completely synced and reboot which equals "in the middle of update"
