Back in the ancient times when I started using linux it was usual to format a separate swap partition. I have just installed endeavourOS on a new nvme drive and noticed that the installer defaults to no swap. A bit reading and it seems that a separate swap partition is not recommended on solid state drives as it will concentrate wear on a small area of the drive. Alternatives seemed to be a swap file or xram or xswap ram drives. I couldn't find a clear answer on what would be the best solution.
What are you using? My system is just a general purpose desktop install.
