Firefox Android Battery Drain - alternatives? - eviltoast

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?

    I use both Mull and Brave and there is no difference between how much they drain battery. Try Mull, it wont make unnecessary network activity, like Firefox do with their spying telemetry. And restricting battery could make opposite effect.
