Usually I don’t. I mainly game on my laptop, and I only turn it off when I need to bring it with me somewhere, which is roughly once per month.
Electricity is cheap, whereas my time isn’t. By leaving it on, I can continue where I left off without having to open anything.



Seconding your remark about creators being on YouTube. I’m a big consumer of YouTube videos, and the only reason why I’m not (much) on peertube is because of the content.
A reason why peertube isn’t as popular among creators is the lack of monetization. While I would love for monetization not to be a factor, it’s a simple truth that many of the creators do what they do to pay rent a d their phone bills.
So until kofi, patreon, or similar funding methods overtake ads in revenue source, there’s not much of a reason for creators to upload to peertube.
