I've had quite good success with hibernate on Linux. It was a long time ago but I accidentally tried it on a laptop ~13 years ago & it just worked. The appeal was immediate- 3-5s boot/sleep rather than near instant but no battery drain!
I had one laptop where the wifi would only come up every other boot, but that did eventually, after many years, get resolved with a new kernel.
It's been really nice having no power drain on personal laptops! Agreed, I too see pretty excellent power consumption on Linux. The new connected Windows stuff looks so awful, unbelievable power drain. I hope it largely remains a Windows problem & doesnt Linux greatly. To be honest, 20% after a weekend is much less than I'd want.
