I grew tired of my laptop losing too much battery while in suspend and therefor wanted to setup hibernate. However, I can not get it to work. Systemctl hibernate shuts off the laptop, but it does not resume its previous state when turned on again. I use Ubuntu 22.04.4 LTS and Windows 11 in a dual boot configuration and I am trying to hibernate Ubuntu (which is the main thing I am using) on a Lenovo L13 Yoga.
I tried a lot of things I found in other posts, the last and biggest post being Ubuntu 18.04 can't resume after hibernate.
Currently I have the following configuration:
cat /etc/polkit-1/localauthority/50-local.d/com.ubuntu.enable-hibernate.pkla:
[Re-enable hibernate by default in upower]

This is everything I can think of that might be relevant. Please ask if there is anything else I can provide.
EDIT:
I removed the swapfile and created a swap partition to try to resume from there, following the instrucions in https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq and https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/how-to-enable-hibernate-in-ubuntu-22-04-lts/.
(As a consequence, I now see the following GRUB menue
EDIT3: this was only happening because I messed up the boot menu, I fixed it and now it behaves exactly like with the swapfile) But it still doesn't resume any of the apps I have open before hibernating. Could there be anything that keeps my laptop from writing the RAM to the swap partition?
EDIT2: I have used "Grub Customizer" in the past to edit the boot sequence scripts. Though I've not used it to edit the boot menu to include resume, but directly edited the file with nano. According to this "https://ubuntuhandbook.org/index.php/2021/08/enable-hibernate-ubuntu-21-10/" Grub Customizer might mess with enabling hibernate?
