Again, Firefox is causing a huge battery drain on my Android device when it’s not running. I’ve set everything up so that it has no chance of running in the background, yet last night I saw a 6% battery consumption, a large part of which was caused by Firefox. To avoid this, every time I exit I have to force close it.
I need a browser that works across all my devices, I would like it to be fully open source and have synchronization between my computer and smartphone. I would prefer it not to be based on Chromium. Firefox, if it didn’t have this issue, still consumes a lot of battery when in use and is slow on Android, but I could accept that. But for it to drain so much battery when not in use, no. Any suggestions for something I might have missed?

@[email protected] I’m usually connected via WiFi, so it shouldn’t be related to mobile signal.
I think that something gets stuck and continues to run, even if the app isn’t allowed to run in the background.
I’ll try with Fennec and Mull, just to see if it is related to any kind of telemetry
