On main personal PC:

It won't do Modern Standby properly, so it always kinda hibernates, ergo: Press Power button, make a coffee, wiggle mouse and click things once desktop appears so I know it's finally responsive. To shut down I just ignore it like the naughty boy it is until it sulks, tries to sleep, and finally falls into hibernation.

Gaming/VR PC:

Modern Standby works perfectly. Press power button, instantly awake, ready to go. Also leave it to sleep when I'm done.

Work PC:

It's a Surface Pro 7, as such it has a mind of its own. I approach it cautiously so as not to startle it, and treat it gently so it doesn't reboot when I click on stuff too fast.

In case it's not brutally obvious, these are Windows 10 PCs
