I have used Orion to test it out and it prompts you if you want to update when a new update is available. Coming from a Unix background I prefer this method over a forceful update.
- kevincox 4y agoHmm, something is wrong with their wording then. > The way we measure this is through auto-update “pings” to our updates server. > This measures only users who have enabled auto-updates > auto-updates are disabled by default This seems to say that they won't do auto-update checks by default. But I guess they are doing auto-update checks but not tracking the checks, just a "ping" (whatever that means if it isn't an update check).
- freediver 4y agoWe are not doing auto-update checks by default (as that would be a form of telemetry). The pings we count will originate only from users that manually enabled them.
