I noticed my computer (when running Mint 22.3) didn't turn off the screen even when the lid was closed, when I said "do nothing". (You may jest, but that's the setting for "turn off the screen when closing the lid" on my past Windows computers.)
I don't want to lock or suspend the computer when I close the lid -- just turn off the screen. There's an applet to specifically turn off the screen, but I can't seem to find this in the power options themselves.

There is a "turn off the screen after x minutes" setting in power management, you can set it to 5 mins and the screen will turn off 5 minutes after you close the lid without locking it. Not ideal, but closest I've got.
There's also turn off monitor applet in settings - applets - download

Yeah, I know of the applet. It's sitting in my tray icons right now. The best option right now seems to be to click that and then shut the lid.

You have a option in your bios for that where you can choose what happens when you close your laptop
