so i checked reddit and there was someone complaining about this, and i went to check and it happened to me to, mintupdate wrote almost 500 GB of data, wich is ungodly amount of data, and i know this is not cinnamon repo but cinnamon also has a very high amount of write/read, this amount of data being written on a ssd may only have taken 0.1% of its lifespan, but it was 2 days, and i dont know when this started, my ssd is still healthy
i dont have the SS of the mint update process but it was SUPER high

if there is anything i can do to help fix or any info yall need im open to help
