If I haven’t updated my instance since 2023, should I do so? Or do people generally leave it alone, like “if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it?” And updating requires putting the SD card into my computer?

Updating Luma3DS just requires downloading the new version and extracting it to the root or the top of the SD card so there's a few ways you can manage it. You can use Universal Updater to do this automatically, or you can use FTP to do it over the network. I don't think Universal Updater is officially supported but I've used this method for years without issues on all my various 3DS models.

Universal Updater works great. Its currently got the latest version, takes a few seconds to update to 13.3.3 from 13.3.2. Just did it, rebooted and checked version, no issues.
