Old kernels not deleted; full /boot partition (lemmy.world)

I installed debian for a friend who is not techy. They've been accepting the updates as and when offered. Now their /boot is full. I'm assuming they need to run

apt autoremove --purge

Or similar. But is there a way you automate this? Otherwise debian with a boot partition seems to have a self destruct timer!

Advice appreciated!

They're using the automated updates. I guess that's not doing the apt full-upgrade or dist-upgrade ...

I allocated 1GB for boot. I'm using separate boot to have encrypted root.
