I told it to power off. It rebooted to do updates. Once these updates were done, it powered off. Kinda like Windows. 😂

    I’ve never had a Windows laptop suspend correctly, so…

    I guess it’s the year of the macOS desktop?

      “suspend” is Microsoft corpo speak to say “turn off the screen and fans and use 100% of the CPU to install updates, user expects to have its battery depleted when he comes back”

      I’ve had Macbooks also fuck up their sleep state, only waking up after a full shutdown.

      Maybe the M-core series is better? I don’t know, haven’t tried any of those.

      I have been soloing Linux for 5 years now.

      But tbh, I have had almost no issues regarding suspend/hibernate on Windows. On Linux, on the other hand… For starters, hibernate never worked for me.

        That’s why I was saying macOS is really the only option if your definition of “year of” is suspend/resume reliability. It highly depends on the hardware for Linux/Windows

        The last two Windows laptops I’ve used (last 5 years), one wouldn’t suspend correctly (in suspend, it wouldn’t fully suspend and drained >5% battery/hour) and the other, on resume, couldn’t play audio without restarting

      I have many older yet quite serviceable Macs (2015 or so) that I’ve been partitioning and trying out different distros—so far no issues whatsoever. I know I can get past Monterey (last OS version officially supported by Apple on these) using OpenCore but I really don’t like any of the MacOS versions past Monterey
