Unknown message when updating in terminal

Linux novice here. Installed Zorin 17 a few months ago, all seems to be working well. I usually let the software updater take care of updating, but thought I would use the terminal after a long time. Got this very long message that I don't understand. It seems like it is telling me there is a problem, hope someone can help me out.

None of these messages are critical, they are simply warnings, although they could be indicative of something else going on.

Did you install anything outside of the Software store on your own, using the terminal or perhaps a .deb package manually? The warnings refer to duplicate entries in your repository list, where updates are downloaded from.

Open the Software store's preferences -> Software Repositories -> Other Software, and take a screenshot. Make sure to maximize the window so that all entries are visible.

The first warning here is expected and completely harmless, but if you want to get rid of it take a look a this other post:

This long Warning is a multiple Configuration Thing. To solve that, open the Terminal and type:

sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list.d/archive_uri-http_archive_ubuntu_com_ubuntu_-jammy.list

In the following Window go to Line 4 and sett a # at the Beginning of the Line. Then type ctrl+o to save the Change, Enter to confirm and ctrl+x to close. Then back in the normal Terminal make a sudo apt update again and then it should runs without the Messages.

The Brave Thing is because Brave itself don't add a Value in the Description for adding there Repo. There is arch=amd64 missing. In the Link from @zenzen is explained what to do.

I won't worry about the brave browser message then. I followed the instructions from Ponce-de-Leon and that cleared up the other messages. I don't think I installed any outside software, but I did uninstall some ZorinOS software from the Software Store that I was having trouble with and installed the flatpacks. Two that I remember are VLC and SMPlayer, but I think there was 1 or 2 more.

Thank you for your help.

Just to add about the multiple entries, someone has written a python script to deal with this issue:

Unless I need to do something else, I'm good as is. Thanks for your help.
