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?

    Maybe Google does not, but I sometimes see Firefox Beta as the top process in FKM using a custom ROM rooted.

    I love Firefox, I like that as it is not a system app it is easier to keep the data with tools like Swiftbackup along with multiple ROMs, taking my cookies logins etc saves lots of time, but it doesn’t feel snappier than Chrome for me (I used Chrome with AdAway) hopefully things change in the future.
