I use Hibernation instead of Standby. I have an SSD so the difference boils down to maybe 10 seconds. Which is time I do have :)

Hibernate is great, except for the part where it wears down your SSD much faster, especially if you have a machine with big amount of RAM.

The impact is minor. SSDs are super durable nowadays and Hibernating for years won't really make a difference. The SSDs will outlive the need for a bigger disk anyway. But technically I agree.

Hybrid standby is the best, but requires S3 support.
