I’ve got a brand new Pixel 8 and my battery isn’t making it through the day. Android tells me Firefox is eating it up in the background. I just changed it to restricted battery use and I’ll see if that helps.

I do not want to switch to Brave or Chrome, but this is intolerable. What are you favorite Firefox alternatives and why? Mull? Librewolf?

    Personally… I wouldn’t switch to something chrome based but you could take a look at bromite or ungoogled.

    I doubt FF forks are going to solve the problem.

    What’s it doing all day? Does closing tabs make any difference?

      I have it set to close tabs after one day, so I’m not sure if it could be this. I don’t generally have the same tabs open everyday.
