Automatic update does not respect metered network

[yihanwu1024]

Have you read a contributing guide?

• I have read CONTRIBUTING.md
• I have searched the existing issues and didn't find any that were similar
• I have considered creating a pull request with fixes instead of a bug report and want to proceed

Current Behavior

Today Anytype downloaded a 197 MB update on my mobile hotspot, which I labeled as metered in Windows. This could have cost me about 100 Euros if I am slightly unlucky.

Expected Behavior

Anytype should not automatically download updates if this setting cannot be respected.

Either respect the metered network setting, or do not automatically download updates.

Steps To Reproduce

None

Environment

- OS: Windows 11
- Version: 26200.7171

Anything else?

Hello, it's not possible unfortunately to detect if a network is metered one, so our best option is to introduce a setting to disable automatic updates, meanwhile you can disable the update domain in your firewall settings: https://anytype-release.fra1.digitaloceanspaces.com
