Impossible to quit client on linux

Hi I installed the client on fedora linux via dnf. It works OK but I do not want it always running. How do I quit this application?

“Launch on system statup” is UNchecked — and yet it does this anyway. How? It is not in my xfce “Sessions” startup items. I do not find anything relevant in systemctl. Where is it being loaded?

Then if I quit it by

  • context menu on tray item > exit, or
  • opening the application window > myusername dropdown menu > exit, or
  • killing via task manager, or
  • sudo killall nextcloud

it will reappear later on.

a. where is it being started?
b. how is it being restarted?

~/.config/Nextcloud/nextcloud.cfg (redacting [Accounts] and subsequent):

[General]
clientVersion=3.12.3git
confirmExternalStorage=true
isVfsEnabled=false
launchOnSystemStartup=false
newBigFolderSizeLimit=500
optionalServerNotifications=true
overrideLocalDir=
overrideServerUrl=
showCallNotifications=true
useNewBigFolderSizeLimit=false

generated a debug archive, here is what seems relevant from that:
