I found the image on Mastodon, so it’s not mine, but I agree. I never let my battery get below 50% if I can help it. If it gets below 20, I’m in panic mode.
Most modern devices can manage the battery for you pretty well, helping with any harm it might do. But even then, it’s less bad for the battery than deep discharges and recharges (where the battery does get low). It’s honestly probably fine.
You should charge your battery, sir!

that doesn’t sound great for the battery

Seems to work fine to me.
Why?
Genuinely I let mine drop to 5% before charging, I think letting it discharges makes the battery last longer.
Nah you want to have like 20% or so. Dendrites and other li-ion demons enjoy lower charge, and enjoy when charging is done in cold weather
