I always have at least one Linux machine around that I use primarily, but it's never been reliable. Either Debian or Ubuntu, I always, without fail, have issue with sleep/wake/hibernate and will never bet it'll wake properly when they sleep.
My current Ubuntu desktop with AMD cpu doesn't sleep and has to be manually hibernated.
My HP Dev One laptop with PopOS will fail to wake roughly 1/10 times, requiring a hard reset. Other times it'll fail to sleep and overheat in my backpack. Occasionally, it'll stop recognizing USB peripherals, or the trackpad/keyboard will stop responding to inputs.
I prefer Linux on nearly every front, but having a totally unreliable computing environment makes it a deal-breaker for me.
> "Have you tried $THING"
No I really have grown tired of waking a machine to a blank screen and having to ssh into it to kill gnome or any of the other crap.
My Macs very occasionally freeze on wake too--but that's exceedingly rare compared to the myriad issues with Linux usability.
