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.

I get a bug with putting mine to sleep - becomes unresponsive and have to manual shutdown. So I've disabled sleep. With modern ssds, there is very little downtime on startup. 30-60s or so. No reason not to just shut down and save power.
