Best to do an orderly shutdown and reboot when needed,
or if it's a desktop
enable power saving wherever possible -- including blank screen as a
screensaver; it powers down the monitor(s) and unless you set it to lock
it comes right back to life if you hit a key or move the pointing device.
The amount of time lost in trying to get suspend/hibernate to work is far
in excess of the amount of time one would save if it worked as advertised
to begin with.

Suspend used to work fine for me when using Xfce on here, and I regularly used
suspend on Debian. "zzz" (pretty much an alias of "acpiconf -s3" for
me)
still works as intended if I'm in TDM or a tty. It only happens in the
desktop environment.
However, we can scratch suspend. It still freezes from time to time when I'm
doing something on the desktop. I actually decided to write this after the
freeze happened this morning while I was in the middle of playing a game on
Steam.
