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.

On laptops with good support openbsd is sublime. I have a thinkpad x131 that I still use as a daily driver. Mainly because it runs obsd perfectly. never any problems suspending and resuming. I replaced the wifi when it was new to a supported model along with much cursing about lenovo card whitelist. perhaps the only black mark on it's record. It is getting quite long in the tooth by now but it still meets my needs. I shall be very sad when it dies.

Honestly the most underrated feature on at least this thinkpad is it has three physical mouse buttons. So nice. Now I have to check if lenovo still does that.
