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

I always power off any computers that I won’t be using anymore for the day. Be it desktops or laptops. My parents always taught me that leaving devices on (or even connected to power) when not using them was a fire hazard. Although I think it’s a bit overblown, powering off anything I don’t need has stuck as a habit and I see no reason to change it. With SSDs the startup time had become fast enough to make me stop caring. The wear and tear on the SSD is also not that big of an issue. My laptop and its SSD are from 2014 and have been subjected to the worst of my programming abilities, yet they still function fine.
Even without considering any firehazard I simply enjoy starting from a clean slate every time I start a pc.
Yeah that as well. Same with my browser. I tend to configure my browser such that it clears all open tabs when closed.
