Hi, I often use the mac connected to a Apple Studio Display external monitor via Usb c. By doing so, however, the mac is always charging even if in reality it is not charging because the power supplied by the Usb c port of the monitor. Is there any way to disable charging through that Usb port from the mac? Could it create long-term battery problems in your opinion?

Leaving the computer plugged in will not damage the computer or the battery. You can leave the computer plugged in whenever needed or convenient to do so. The MacOS manages the power/charging system very well. There is no need for you to micromanage the system.
