My Arch system stays on until a firmware package needs an update. Then i cry and scream bc it's only been a month since the last one. Also I just updated a bunch of those, so my system has not been on long.
Linux
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

7 days currently, 30 days on the previous boot. I had to open it up to install extra drives.
Uptime: 9 days, 13 hours, 36 mins
My laptop has been up for 123 days. It gets put in standby when it's not in use. I should probably reboot into a new kernel soon.
My desktop gets shut down at night because it's power hungry.
My server gets shut down about once a year for cleaning and hardware upgrades.
I've never had a Windows machine that can stay on longer than ~3 days before developing weird behaviour so it's off right now until I get home.
People leave their PC on constantly? I understand leaving servers running but i always turn my PC on in the morning, then off at night once im finished.
12 days and 17 hours. As another commenter pointed out, checked with uptime
07:38:25 up 15 days, 15:54, 2 users, load average: 2,93, 2,24, 1,65
I think my desktop has been on the past couple days because I've been too lazy to turn it off because I caught the flu and basically slept the past couple days away.
Uptime: 26d 17h 44m
It depends. Sometimes I shut it down every night. Occasionally, I'll leave it in sleep mode for a few days.
I think the longest uptime I've had on anything I've owned is probably a month or so on a Raspberry Pi 4 server I used to have running with a personal Mediawiki instance (I still have the Pi, but if I ran a server in my dorm, I have the feeling someone might come to bite off my hand).
I have an Nvidia GPU and suspend/resume works about 20% of the time so my PC is shutdown every time I won't use it for a few hours. Don't use my personal computer that much so it doesn't really bother me a lot. My laptop is however long the battery lasts with the lid closed, I don't use it much so most times I pick it up it's dead.
up 1 day, 8 hours, 2 minutes
There was a period where I was testing my laptop's hibernation so I got uptime to around 30 days.
But now, The highest uptime I can reach is around 2-3 days if I forget to turn it off and leave it either plugged in or on a high battery so it lasts until the next day.
I have a well-fenced server that I inherited 20 years ago and, but for power outages, has been in operation throughout. It survived a p2v but will not survive the coming v2v. #rhel4 #vmscare

My work laptop has been up for 26 days, 17:24. My primary server at home has been online for 42 days, 21:27. Personal laptop - 45 days, 20:51. The primary server of my exocortex has been online and crunching away for 278 days, 19:48.
I turn mine off to save power when I'm not actively using it. I have a small 65 watt server that stays on all the time. Currently it has been up for 3 months or so.
My main PC only stays on for a couple days at a time (on sleep/hibernate when not in use) only because I'm generally too lazy to shut all programs down. I reboot on updates though, which is every couple days.
Thanks to Mint's updates... about 10 minutes.
I never turn it off it gets an occasional reset when updates need to be installed but that's about it
55 days, 34 mins
Edit: my Mac mini (the torrent client) is 199 days.
I have all my devices set to reboot once weekly a few hours after daily scheduled updates. I probably don't need to do this, but I do. It's a habit I got in with scheduling router reboots, and then started extending it to other devices. It's nice to have some solid uptime, but I have three unbound DNS servers in sequence so they update and reboot on a staggered schedule so it's like they never go down.
You never know when the odd cosmic ray is gonna hit and flip yer bits.
