Did Linux ever fix the hibernate stuff? I remember 5 years ago, it was a MUST to disable it, because the system would go to hibernate and never wake up again without a hard restart.

On most of my linux computers it always works. On one of them it works 90% of the time, which sounds high but is really annoying. (Probably an interaction with AMDGPU.)

if you are talking about 'suspend' generally, this really depends on the model (read: drivers), not sure on hibernate itself (since i just sleep)

Sleep and hibernate is not really a linux problem, it's more of a OEM closed-source firmware implementation which is only tested to work on Windows problem so the linux devs have to eyeball it and pray that it works which makes it a constant game of whack-a-mole. So until there is an open standard for firmware used by all OEMs it will never be truly fixed. Hell, sleep doesn't even work half the time on my XPS15 with Windows so Dell can't even get that right. That's why the likes of System76 develop their own firmware.

It works on my thinkpad, and has always worked on my laptops. Linux firmware is hit&miss.

Hibernate works well on my Macbook with Ubuntu installed.
