Hello since the 10.15.3 my mac mini doesn't enter any sleepmode or standby, it's always on. The output of pmset-g log looks like this:

Just out of interest, if you set sleep to 2 minutes, does it go to sleep then? Mine does on my Mac Mini, but anything longer than that it will never go to sleep. Same on my other Mac Mini, both 2012 models.

No , sleep set to 2 minutes doesnt help, the screen shuts off but the computer is running

My Mini 2012 has not gone to sleep by itself since Catalina, set at 2 minutes monitor shuts off but computer doesn't go to sleep as mentionned by Baloo84.

Any solution, my Macbook similarly doesn't sleep if it's on Power Adapter - everything disabled, including deep settings like Screen Time, Siri, Bluetooth ones etc. too - it just doesn't sleep

You can check via terminal what is preventing sleep: pmset -g assertions

In my case I unloaded some services via terminal which prevented sleep or slowed down my MacBook Pro (Mid 2009):

launchctl unload -w /System/Library/LaunchAgents/com.apple.photoanalysisd.plist && launchctl unload -w /System/Library/LaunchAgents/com.apple.mediaanalysisd.plist && launchctl unload -w /System/Library/LaunchAgents/com.apple.parsec-fbf.plist

Only as a BackgroundTask, I have

pid 357(UserEventAgent): [0x000018d3000b88c7] 00:13:38 BackgroundTask named: "com.apple.routined.persistence.mirroring.backup" (I have all iCloud services except FindMyMac disabled)

As far as I've tested tho, Wi-Fi seems to prevent sleep, if the Wi-Fi is off, the system sleeps

Edit: Turning Wi-Fi off seems to disable that task, so whatever it is, it's probably causing my issue, the iCloud comes default-on, I suspect it might've bugged when I disabled it from settings before it could auto hijack all my photos to the cloud - currently it seems to just block sleep

Small update: I don't know whether this is regular or not, but, only when I enable "Power Nap" on "Power Adapter" - the 'BackgroundTask named: "com.apple.routined.persistence.mirroring.backup"' becomes non-blocking and the system sleeps ( but wakes up periodically, since it's a power nap )

This is the only thread on the internet which com.apple.routined.persistence.mirroring.backup gets mentioned, so I assume it's a weird stuck process
