I thought the power adapter was a usb-c format thing anyway?Does anyone here run their Pi (specifically the 4) from USB port? I've searched and there seems to be consensus of 'not recommended' but no real mention of what what will happen? Could it damage parts over time?
Yep it is and I have a usb (standard type) connected to desktop with the other end a usb-c for Pi. I don't know if this meets the requirements (power wise) for it though.I thought the power adapter was a usb-c format thing anyway?

edit: I see what you mean and have edited my post
A lot of mobos supply power to usb sockets when shut down i think...Mine does i`m sure as i can charge my phone with pc off via usbAlso note your use case , as the pi WILL power down with the pc I'd imagine.
