I haven't seen this behavior on a Mac since Firefox Quantum was released, FWIW. It's what got me to switch back to Firefox in the first place. (Sidebery and a few other nice extensions have helped keep me there.)
- jjcon 4y agoI didn’t use Firefox pre-quantum so I’ve only seen this behavior post quantum. I last gave Firefox a try about a year ago and while the fans weren’t as bad the battery life/power consumption just wasn’t comparable to safari or chrome based browsers
- eropple 4y agoIt isn't comparable to Safari for sure, but with similar tabs open, for me, Firefox and Chrome have similar (if not better for Firefox) heat/fan behavior. Leaving a Gmail tab open is cursed in both, though. I would use Safari on a Mac if there was a decent way to sync browser history, etc. to Firefox on Windows, but--welp.
