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.

Laptop? Whenever I ain’t using it.
Steam Deck? Same.
I don’t want the battery on either to go to hell in a hand basket.
Desktop? I usually keep it in sleep and every once in a while turn it offnto give it a full rest. Sleep manages to keep it cool enough and uses minimal power, so I don’t have as huge if a problem with that.
Probably should turn it off more often, though.
