This is clearly not true. There are serious problems with compatibility of integrated graphics in Ryzen and Linux. More or less reasonable support in Linux (and I am not even talking about FreeBSD, let alone other BSDs) appeared only very very recently, and it is still buggy, causes lockups, black screen boots etc. Not only that, Ryzen G series are not attractive at all because they are always underpowered and one generation behind; simply put, they suck.
Speaking of Idle power consumption - there is evidence all over the internet, that Ryzens themselves are not neccerraly very power hungry, but their motherboard chipsets are. Here for example, Rx 3xxx consume 10W more at idle https://tpucdn.com/review/amd-ryzen-5-3600/images/power-idle.png https://tpucdn.com/review/amd-ryzen-5-3600/images/power-idle.... The reason is unclear, but it is what it is - they really hungrier.
