Distros often do automate it, they're just better at it than windows so you don't notice lol (and they usually only enable it by default for security updates, which is the sane way to do it IMO) ubuntu/debian have unattended-upgrade, DNF distros like fedora, rhel-likes, etc have dnf-automatic.
I've never had one break something.
you can configure it manually
or some basic configuration options should be available through "software-properties-gtk" under the Updates tab (unsure if this is preinstalled or not, but it is available from apt. It also might show up as "Software & Updates" in the GUI)
I don't know if debian does security updates automatically by default, I've only used it on servers lately
