The best investment I ever made and you could too probably is to setup some ci step and dependabot etc. That's how I constantly monitor my many web, mobile and desktop projects and keep my dependencies update. If a new version of a dependency or framework like say flutter drops, I set aside some time, make a new branch, upgrade and do the same. I practice the same with feature branches, merge as soon as possible so the rebases and merges don't get hairy in a week or two. It's maintenance work but the couple minutes a week or so end up paying off in the long term.
