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.

    Yes I always shutdown my laptop/desktop. They boot so quickly I see no need to use sleep. The only time I use sleep is when I’m streaming with Sunshine but half the time WOL doesn’t work anyway. 🤷‍♂️

    My Windows work laptop on the other hand…

    I can fly to Costa Rica, get some coffee beans, fly back home, grind those beans, make a fresh espresso, and then maybe it will have finished booting from shutdown.
