MacOS seems to have no problem with hibernating and it and its predecessor NeXT have been using swap files for over 30 years.

MacOS has no problem with hibernation because hardware and software are designed together: it uses TPM to manage swap encryption. I assume "BIOS" is also optimized to enable fast boot on sleep.

Linux can work with TPM but it's never as smooth. (Unless I guess you make it custom for your specific setup.)

I have FDE with keys in the TPM. It's pretty smooth bit required a one time additional step in Fedora. It's also probably not very secure, but my threat model is simple theft.

		What's the benefit of using the TPM compared to a simple passphrase at boot, in that scenario?
