Title. It seems excessive. Even when I fully power it down it tends to drop a lot more than I’d expect.

Thanks.

    Linux has a hibernate function, but the power button activates Sleep, which is higher-consumption. There may be a way to set it to actually hibernate on button press, but I’ve only seen Hibernation via Desktop Mode.

    Sleep = keep processes in memory = more power consumption.

    Hibernation = write most processes to disk and keep only vital system processes in memory = less power consumption.
