I use Ubuntu btw. Poweroff could use more write cycles on the SSD because it has to read everything at startup, but suspend has to keep supplying power to the RAM

    My work machine (Ubuntu) gets suspended at the end of the day during the week and shut down on Friday. It’s a good balance between keeping my many programs running and ready and cleaning up regularly.

    I always shut down my desktop pc (Arch, btw) as it takes just a few seconds to boot up.

    My laptop (Arch) I shut down because suspend never worked.
