Firefox is still cutting my MacBook battery by 1.5 and often munching through 30% of cpu on many websites, with or without extensions and adblocker. It’s a shame because I love the browser in every way than the rest of the browser gang.

- itchynosedev 9y agoGood to know it's a wide spread issue. It's hardly usable when scrolling hackernews causes cpu to spike to 60%
- molestrangler 9y agoI use a few browsers: Opera for when running my laptop on battery Vivaldi when in the office. Now, I've ditched Vivaldi and sticking with Opera & Firefox. I suspect someone will create a Firefox Addon to auto-detect we running on batteries and throttle back on the performance settings.
