It is entirely off-topic, and I have observed exactly the same phenomenon. I have also felt the same reaction - "Isn't Linux \"better\" "?

I have a 20.04 thinkpad that I rarely use for reasons (partly that it doesn't come out of suspend most of the time, forcing a hard reboot) but I remember this being a problem back when my Ubuntu install was functional :)

I had the same problem with my T14s (AMD). Installing kernel 5.8 via `apt install linux-generic-hwe-20.04-edge` solved the suspend issue for me.
