Help in updating Arch :D

Hey! Thanks for using your valuable time to read this, I recently shifted from EndeavourOS to the main Arch distro. However I do not know how I can update Arch, and the main reason I want to find this out is so I don't fall behind :D!!! Again thank you so much for using you valuable time and reading this!!

pacman -Suy

Prepare for a hard time when you can’t find even such basic things yourself.

Please always remember to mark resolved threads by editing your initial posts subject - so others will know that there's no task left, but maybe a solution to find.
Thanks.

Also "pacman -Suy" is logically and morally wrong
Keep "pacman -Syu"
