You CAN get updates to .NET through WSUS or "Microsoft Updates" (just not through "Automatic Updates").
You have to opt in, and obviously it only works on Windows.
Separately, since PowerShell 7.2, it can also be updated that way, including it's embedded dotnet.
You have to opt in separately, and it still only works on Windows.
Additionally, it won't upgrade from an LTS to non-LTS major version, so you'll get stuck on the LTS release.
Az Cli has a built-in "upgrade" command.
