@szaimen Any thoughts on this? I ask becasue you implemented it.

My idea here is to run updates less frequently. Once per month is enough.

Hm... Is there a specific reason why the update script should only run once a month and not every week? This means some instances might be vulnerable in worst case for a whole month without any updates installed...

Yes, it's about uptime. I'm aware of the downside, but if you want to update more frequently then you can just change the crontab. Once per month is enough from a security standpoint if you ask me. In worst case, some CVE might not be patched instantly (aka next week) but 3 weeks more is not a problem I'd say - maybe if you're a government, but not a "regular user".
