--- Comment #1 from Heiko Tietze <[email protected]> ---
The automatic update is only relevant on Windows and macOS, on Linux it happens
via the distribution. And we have opt-out settings for the MAR updater, see
https://help.libreoffice.org/26.2/en-US/text/shared/optionen/online_update.html.
For improvements see bug 164757 "Improve method for user, or admin, to block
MAR updater".

So we talk about showing this checkbox on the welcome dialog, and I disagree.
Updates are essential for safety and stability, we provide a less-frequently
changing version too. The information should rather go to the updater itself
asking optionally (here opt-out too, ie. "Don't ask again") whether the found
update should be applied.
