"My" in My PC means "Microsoft's". All the Windows PCs in this world are all their's.

To be fair, Linux has not been especially awesome at suspended/hibernate/resume, historically.

Windows is too self-important. Daddy, chill.
Nope. My Linux Mint randomly wakes up from sleep mode all the time. It's just a bug. Tried to fix it, never found solution. I guess I am fine with it. Well. Not really. Help me if you can!!11!!
Apparently you can see which devices can wake your PC with cat /proc/acpi/wakeup. S3 should be sleep and S4 hibernation. Though I have no idea which device is which.

Put chrome on it, that should fix it
My first guess world be unplug your mouse and keyboard and see if it still happens. Your mouse or keyboard could be sending phantom inputs sometimes. If it's a laptop maybe not though or you'd have to test it another way at least. But it's the first thing I'd do.
Windows would always wake from hibernation/suspension by itself after 2 or 3 hours. Truly a feature, not a bug
I love how they wake up in my backpack so they can overheat AND drain the battery at the same time.
That's efficiency.
Reach into your backpack and get 3rd degree burns.
As sucky as modern Windows is, all you have to do to avoid this bullshit is to shut down the pc at night or whenever you're not using it. That being said, half the time Windows updates, it tries to sucker me into subbing for Microshart 365.
My only windows is force upon me as my work laptop. I sadly actually work for Microsoft. I literally only use it to SSH to my virtual machine running redhat.
Microsoft really enjoys forcing updates at the worst time when their employees are trying to work. Sometimes it literally just makes me stop working for that day. Their loss.

Why is this true π
Accurate. Because mine won't turn on anymore after sleeping.
Windows user who turned that shit on within an hour of installing the OS:
