About: The new MacBook Pros are not very good with Linux and some work of the community is being done, to fully support this devices in the future, so a future with this working as a perfect Chromebook is possible!
Sleep and hibernation workaround:
Open the ChromeOS terminal
Type sudo su
Run echo 0 > /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000\:01\:00.0/d3cold_allowed
I will be keeping track of this and updating the state as more of it its working, since one day all of the stuff should be working.
Possible issues that are caused by ChromeOS itself:
Camera: According to the community Camera should work out of the box (In Linux) however this doesnt happen on ChromeOS
Touchpad: Touchpad driver works out of the box in most Linux distros, however here it doesn't while we can use it to click, we can't use it to move the pointer on the screen, perhaps an issue with ChromeOS since most Linux distros use libinput.
