Should I turn on automatic updates?

Enable them for WordPress core security releases and for plugins you trust. Leave big page builders, WooCommerce and the theme on manual so you can watch the result.

How often should I update?

Check weekly. Apply security releases as soon as they appear, and batch the rest into one planned session.

Is it safe to skip several versions at once?

WordPress core handles it, but plugins may not. Update core first, then plugins one by one, and expect more breakage the longer you waited.

Do updates ever remove my content?

No. Content lives in the database. What breaks is layout and features, which is why a database and files backup covers you.
