[SOLVED] bluetooth autostarts on boot

Quick question.

How does one disable bluetooth so it doesn't autostart every time i turn on the computer.
Rfkill disables it but whenever i boot it starts up again. And i have to do it again.

It was on cinnamon. I installed blueman and deleted blueberry and then turned off the blueman in the startup in application startup.

In /etc/bluetooth/main.conf there is an option that controls auto start.

Hi!
I still have problem with persisting bluetooth on boot.
I'm using Artix runit with bspwm.
If I use rfkill block bluetooth, it works, but I don't want my bluetooth to start at all.

I've tried to set AutoEnable=false inside /etc/bluetooth/main.conf, but it doesn't really do anything.
I have removed runit service for bluetooth and bluez, bluez-utils, blueman, but "/usr/bin/bluetooth" still outputs "bluetooth = on" and I have to rfkill to block it.

Is it possible that "/usr/bin/bluetooth" command output "on" even tho bluetooth isn't on at all?

Do you know how can I force bluetooth to never start on boot?

He isn't necroposting, his problem wasn't fixed by the above solution.

Still, it would have been better to start a new thread and post a link pointing to this one.

A permanant solution for them to never start again would be to blacklist the bluetooth modules, but I guess that also prevents you from using bluetooth when you actually need it while your system is on, so you have to remove the blacklists and restart everytime you want to use bluetooth.
