> Why are some people not willing to spend money on these things? Isn't it a good thing to be willing to? From what I understand from other comments on this post, it seems this particular problem can only be perfected by more testing across multiple devices etc - that requires a wider effort that is quite difficult to achieve. For example, I use Linux as my daily driver and I sometimes fix bugs here and there. But, personally for me, this particular one requires so much effort for not-that-revolutionary benefits. More context: I rarely watch long videos on my laptop when on the move. I'd rather fix something that improves my workflow than a bit more of battery life. Sleep, otoh, is very important to me, so I ensure to buy laptops that DO NOT have NVIDIA stuff in them. For Gaming I got my desktop. Result: my XPS 13 and ThinkPad sleep and resume instantly, WiFi, audio etc work fine, including attaching a dock. I guess its really a YMMV thing, which, as the blog points out, doesn't help Linux's popularity.
