  • How to lock system before suspend?

    This is a weird choice in my opinion. multilockscreen first locks the screen then suspends the system when using multilockscreen -s. That makes much more sense to me.

    I have a laptop that I use without battery to protect the livespan while i'm in lockdown, I manage to set up suspend on idle and hibernation through systemd (following this) and works fine, then set up a screen locker with xss-lcok and multilockscreen (following this and this) and then again, work fine, block the screen on idle.
