I am never going to understand why the #Linux community is so allergic to #hibernation.

It's available in every other major operating system, and has been for decades. It's extremely useful for those of us who actually own multiple computers, for preserving battery life and longevity.

@gcvsa I use hibernation regularly on Linux, why do you say the Linux community is allergic to it?

@CouldBeMathijs Tell me which distributions enable hibernation by default, and how to enable it, if it isn't enabled by default.

Or just do a quick Internet search for "linux hibernation".

BTW, I have about 30 years of experience running Linux systems.

@gcvsa Sorry for the late reply, I distinctly remember Kalamares installers often having the option between
- No swap
- Swap to file
- Swap (without hibernation)
- Swap (with hibernation)
I believe your swap needs to be bigger than or equal to your RAM.
I think I've seen it in Manjaro, Gecko, and maybe Kubuntu? Most distro's with Kalamares have the option iirc, and I know at least Plasma and Xfce have support for it in the GUI

Don't know how to enable it on an already installed system though
