Defragmenting my drives manually is one of those things like closing apps on my phone I am not using. Everyone says there is no need to do it. It might even be slightly worse overall. I even have enough self control to avoid doing it and have for years...
But deep down in my heart, I truly FEEL like if I did it would improve things... somehow.

only HDD drives I use are in a ZFS pool which has a very usable fragmentation value from zpool.

Except for some backups, all of my machines use solid state storage so I don't think there is a point for most people, is there?

I feel so seen right now. My partner complains about me closing apps on my phone consistently. I also have to hold myself back from defragging and continually cleaning up my storage drives.
I too am nearly certain that the positive benefits are approaching nil, but I still feel it should be helpful.
