The AUR is unsupported, so any packages you install are your responsibility to update, not pacman’s. If packages in the official repositories are updated, you will need to rebuild any AUR packages that depend on those libraries.

They have a whole wiki for the AUR.
To update the package, you use git to pull the latest branch code and repeat the process. You should double check if there are dependency changes though.

This entire article is guessing at hypothetical backdoors. Its like saying that AES is backdoored because the US government chose it as the standard defacto symmetrical encryption.
There is no proof that Signal has done anything nefarious at all.
Signal tells me which contacts in my contacts list has Signal. It also alerts me when someone in my contacts installs Signal.

I love that Mint brings people to Linux, but its users write some silly guides sometimes.
SSDs?
Oh, never met anyone that despises their own data. Hell yeah, dude. Lose that data!
Do you physically crush and grind your drives once they are end-of-life?
You can just store the key in your TPM and then you don’t have to memorize anything.
