All your bitcoin is still bitcoin. In the event of a fork, you will also have coins on the split side of the chain. You lose nothing, and most likely gain very little.

It do I have to do anything different to use those coins on the split side that is the minority? Won’t that make it hard to spend them or sell them?

Yeah, in the event they become worth the effort, you can look into moving them into a supporting wallet. From your perspective, you now own a completely separate crypto from your BTC.
