The comment i linked is me saying:

i'm not sure how clearer i can be.

The comment you linked says:

> As should be pretty clear from #11655 (comment), we're going to fix this, and yes, imo, autoupdates need an opt-in.

The comment #11655 says:

> Auto-updating for default Riot distributions will continue as before to ensure security fixes are delivered quickly

So at this point already it becomes unclear to the reader which of these has precedence.

So, assuming you're asking in good faith, if you wanted to be clearer you should have written something like:

"*Despite* what's written #11655 (comment), I disagree with the product teams assessment and think autoupdates need an opt-in, therefore I will make sure this is implemented."

(not sure if the content is 100% what you wanted to express in the comment, but you get the idea)

When can I install and run a matrix client without it connecting to you? I want to use your software but want to self-host it and not use any services whatsoever from your organization.
