A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

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