I'd guess that ship has sailed for many people. I never update my "consumer" software because every update makes it worse. I can't be the only one. Nobody is getting any kind of positive reinforcement on updating, best case scenario it does nothing, mostly it makes stuff worse or takes away freedoms.

I'm currently at 399 apps that "neeeeeeed" to be updated.

I manually only update banking apps and the likes.

And if an app forces me to update (lazy API devs!) I usually delete it and find a new one.
