Every night, I put my computer to sleep. But should I be shutting it down every now and then? For example, maybe once a week or once a month?
Just curious to see this question answered from a Linux gamers’ perspective.

My Bazzite PC lives in a cabinet under my living room TV, next to my PS5.
I put it to sleep when not in use, so I can wake it with my 8bitdo controller.
It’s basically a second gaming console.
You should be rebooting Bazzite every now and then because you need to restart for updates to be applied on immutable distros
Since I run in Game Mode, the reboot is pretty much baked into the update process.
Go to Settings. See update. Apply update. Reboot when it says it’s ready.
Aside from that, the PC just chills in Sleep when not being used.
