It’s an assumed truth that Safari is better for battery life — without data to support it.
This pseudo-truth just bugs me. I hear it all the the time. People saying they choose Safari as a browser because it's better for their battery. But there isn't any data (that I know of) that proves that Safari is more efficient at battery usage than any other browser. I applaud Matt Birchler who did real testing on this (2024). He scripted a 20 minute loop that watched YouTube videos, scrolled Mastodon, scrolled websites, and typed in Google Docs.
