Firefox Android Battery Drain - alternatives? (lemmy.ml)

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?

Vanadium or cromite. Really no point in adding Firefox on top of chrome's webview.

I use Firefox on desktop, and it's nice having history in one browser and swapping a tab from mobile to desktop

Can't figure out how to install vanadium. Any suggestions on where to start?

You can't unless you switch to GrapheneOS
