[Bug 1770961] Re: Add options to set the snappy refresh schedule

[Ads20000]

dee bee if you want an off switch it's already been extensively
discussed at https://forum.snapcraft.io/t/disabling-automatic-refresh-
for-snap-from-store/707/

Please Like all the posts there that you agree with and provide SPECIFIC
and preferably REAL use cases where an off switch is needed not just the
ability to schedule updates for once a month and push them back another
month as well as turn off automatic updates when on a metered
connection. (Former?) snapd lead niemeyer requested specific use cases
to demonstrate that an off switch is NEEDED. If you would like to put
the work in, please read the thread in full and then provide what the
developers are requesting on use cases and, if that's not possible, just
Like all the posts you agree with. Thanks! :)
