    Only time my pc shutdowns is for kernel updates or it crashes.

        As the other user stated, it’s not much of a concern as parts are usually upgraded frequently enough to not notice in PCs, but as far as things go I believe rebooting constantly is actually worse in the long run, just like starting your car from cold eventually wears down the starter, starting the PC from cold eventually wears down the PSU.

        I personally dont worry about because pcs usually get replaced after ~10 years anyway due to massive performance and efficiency increases.

        Laptops would be the only exception if you rely alot on the battery.
