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?

Strange as I've a fairphone 4 running CalyxOS and I'm ashamed to say I have at least 90 tabs open on Firefox and it isn't causing a battery drain. I do need to get around to closing a few though.🙃
@justine it happens from time to time. It hasn't been happening for weeks, then a couple of days ago it started behaving this way again.
What I don't tolerate is that it I say "no background processing", I expect no background processing 😉
