I haven’t used swap or hibernation in years. My machines have plenty of RAM for even demanding workloads, so why risk faster disk degradation?
As for hibernation, I just use suspend to RAM if I know that I’ll need the machine again that day, or shut it down if I don’t. With modern SSDs, I feel there’s not much of a perceptible difference between a ‘cold’ boot and a wake-up from suspend-to-disk - at least none that would be worth spending more write cycles on.
