Every time my phone shuts off for running out of battery, it's due to Firefox for some stupid reason. Chrome is somehow worse though, just in different ways. Perhaps I should investigate other things like LibreWolf, but if it were clearly better than either, I think we all would have heard of that fact by now.

I've literally never once had this happen to me over multiple phones. I don't think Firefox uses that much battery.
That's good to know. One of my phones is a Samsung Galaxy S22 and I suspect something went on with that year - a phone shouldn't simply get hot in your hands merely while web browsing for a couple of minutes.

Seems to me they have had a strategy since Firefox 4:
1: Move as many users to Chrome as possible.
2: Pull all value out of the company.
3: Let the remains burn.
@tilvids@mstdn.social Was already clear that they won't be holding an instance for building an understanding environment, but another boasting outlet. First of all, @mozilla@mozilla.social doesn't even have ANYTHING to boast about, because they've ruined everything there was to ruin.
