1865262 - Extreme battery drainage on video-heavy Telegram channels pages

Status: UNCONFIRMED

(Firefox for Android :: Performance, defect)

Description

[Walter K.]

Steps to reproduce:

• Go to any media-reach telegram channel page on a phone (Example with relatively neutral news content: https://t.me/s/disclosetv)
• As you scroll up, play video clips on the page one after another

Actual results:

Phone battery is being noticeably drained as videos are being played. Comparatively to the same amount of video play time, YouTube doesn't appear to drain battery as fast.

Expected results:

Battery should not be drained as fast.

Firefox Nightly 121.0a1
uBlock Origin installed
PBM mode (I think the same behavior happens in regular mode as well)
