FYI: It does have the option to save automatically:
Thanks, that's what I turned on. My problem was it wasn't on already.
You are right. Only autorecovery was on by default, but I had to manually enable automatic saving.
At work i use a $800 proprietary shit software that has a 70% chance of crashing when printing (so it crashes when job is done)
So I got used to Ctrl+S every. Single. Sentence.
Windows 10 home loves to automatically reboot to install the fucking updates IMMEDIATELY. RIGHT. NOW. And Microsoft pushed some big update just a few days ago. When LibreOffice crashes usually there's a recovery feature. It's windows. Windows wanted to install the fucking updates and it told LibreOffice to gracefully close RIGHT NOW, and NO, THE USER DOESN'T WANT TO SAVE, the user wants to get updates immediately ASAP
Btw automatically saving is a generally undesirable feature as it could reduce the lifetime of ssds, slowdown the system if the file Is big or stored on slow media like network.

No it doesn't. Maybe it can happen if you neglect to reboot your pc in ages but normally it never ever happens.
It hasn't happened to me ever and won't because I shutdown the computer at night.

Er, you lost your daughters essay because you assumed that autosave was enabled.
Always save first, and name the file.
Never rely on autosaves for anything, ever.
Make them play Fallout NV, and then
TEACH. YOUR. KID. TO. SAVE.
Damn, you got hit with a severe case of triple bad luck (machine, software and humanness).
As someone who thanks to you got reminded to look at their software backup settings, thanks for your sacrifice.
One time I couldn't work on an assignment at school because I typed it in Microsoft works and school used Microsoft word.
Even if its on by default, first thing you should do when installing or first using it is adjust the settings imo. How often is still a matter of personal choice. And other settings are as well. Granted, I get I'm probably far from the average given how much I like to tinker with settings and customizing toolbars, etc. Still agree it should be on by default along with some basic version history to undo unwanted autosaves.
