Public bug reported:

Hi,

I'm currently on the read with a kubuntu 24.04 machine.

Problem: snapd recklessly refreshes its snaps, once it has network
connection, and thus can pull down gigabytes without user's consent,
*except* if the connection is a "metered" connection.

It, therefore, can drive you into severe trouble or costs, if connected
with a slow and/or expensive connection, e.g. airplane or mobile +
roaming, if the current connecion isn't set to "metered".

But the kde configuration tools does not seem to offer an option to set
a connection to metered.
