annual repost of good advice from me after much experience

Sound advice, but I have access to a new cycle to work scheme without a £££ limit, and have a few reasons to celebrate after a shitty year and a half so I’m staring down the barrel of the moneygun with my finger on the trigger.
I have a hardtail (albeit an obsolete creaking 26er) so I want to scratch that full bounce itch.

Ffs why do mtbs have to have so many different options? Won’t somebody think of the indecisive people? I’ve waded through most of the choices I need to make, but I’m stuck on the question of short or mid travel. Will it make any real difference? Will I regret feeling overbiked or will I find myself thinking “the rear shock, it does nothing!”?
Can someone just tell me what I want please? With enough authority that I just nod my head and do what I’m told. Ta.
