Libre does this as well.
Libre gives you an option to do this, or not, at the time of installation.
Correct, but the default for many years was to just do it.
The default depends on your storage. It has defaulted to not load on startup for me any time I've installed it to an SSD.
I have been using LO since many years and don't have any recollection of not being asked at the installation.
Care to share some details of your experience/knowledge in the matter?
It's a checkbox in the installer, easy to miss. Has defaulted to off for a very long time now, basically ever since SSDs have been commonplace.
