I'm surprised seeing improvements in Suspend/Hibernate support.

I've used OpenBSD on laptops before and it was _fine_. I thought they primarily target servers. This feels like laptop specific improvements. Perhaps to the benefits only to those developing OpenBSD.

The OpenBSD developers (in)famously use ThinkPads almost exclusively, so it works really great on ThinkPads, and much less well on other laptops.

Incidentally it was also on a thinkpad that I had installed it.

Honestly I've never owned any other laptops than thinkpads and macbooks. Every other laptop I've ever touched in a computer shop left me with "eww".
