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?

But does Google pay and banking apps work ?

Banking, most likely (depending on the bank).

Google Pay/Wallet/whatever-it's-called-today, no.

Yeah I used to use lineage on OnePlus 5 I think. But safety net wouldn't allow my bank to work and obviously broke pay.

Unfortunately that's a deal breaker. Until there's another system to pay. Miband, ring , fingerprint whatever.

I need to keep Google for those things. I haven't used cash since 2018
