Hi guys,

I am currently using Linux Mint with automatic updates installed and I keep seeing application updates from LibreWolf, LibreOffice etc.

I have downloaded these through the application manager as well. But what about applications that I install outside of the management, such as the Mullvad browser, are they also automatically updated via the update manager?

    No, programs not downloaded with the package manager are also not updated by it. Many Programs, like Firefox and probably Mullvad bring an autoupdate feature that is enabled if they are installed manually. If an update is available you will probably get a notification in the app to restart your browser so that the changes are applied.
