Were having radically different experiences. Firefox consumes way less power than chrome on all my machines

Chrome needs to be reinstalled every once in a while for some reason, or it will underperform.

It drains battery on fresh installs for me. I just don’t bother. I don’t really see the appeal of chrome tbh. Obviously I have to use it occasionally since google content locks shit and so do employers, but there’s like… No real reason I’d use it as a daily driver. For my use cases and hardware its just plain worse
