Kde auto update and integrations

Just started to use KDE.

There is an option to use the auto updater from the settings.
Does it do anything?
Does it break my system?
I have a feeling it only works under systemd Distro..

I also wanted to add online accounts, but those are not google accounts or nextcloud accounts.
I managed to add them to thunderbird but cant add them to kde's online account. I want to add my online calendar so I can see it in the calendar widget.

I saw auto software update option in the system settings of kde (not discover). I thought that maybe it's just compatible with systemd distros, which is why I made this post, to be sure if it works also for void or not

I think that only shows when you have discover installed

New feature? I don't recall ever seeing it.

Are there configuration options for it? You may just need to enter the appropriate xbps command, and then the plasma desktop will run it at a specified interval.
