Is that actually available to Home users too? I know that people using
Pro can do so but I'm not so sure with the default version.
I don't have access to anything with the Home edition but I believe there
is a setting where it will not automatically update if you say it's on a
metered connection.
Yes, Home has that setting and it's actually the default ('Download
updates over metered connections' is Off by default).
And there are 'Delivery Optimisation' settings for limiting the
bandwidth used for downloading updates.
How many people have Home? Even the cheap Beelink mini came with Pro as
did the Acer Swift 3 laptop.
AFAIK, mostly complete systems, directed at the consumer market, for
example our HP Pavilion laptops. Higher priced HP laptops, especially
the business ones, come with Pro.
FWIW, I've yet to miss any functionality in Home.
