Preferences window change on Mac: Does toggle to the right mean "on" or "off"?

since you don’t use a tickbox anymore.  make us guess & experiment to figure it out why doncha? instead of showing a text label on either side of the toggle : Off  On

 

which side is which?

    Hey tentful, thanks for taking the time to post to our Community.

     

    Apologies for any confusion this might have caused.

     

    When the toggle is set to the right, it means "on" and when it's set to the left, it's "off".

     

    I hope this clarifies things, but let me know if you have any questions.
