High battery usage on android (discuss.tchncs.de)

I recently noticed that Firefox for me has pretty high battery usage, more than twice of what Connect (Lemmy) has at ~75% the screen time.
Could this be because of extensions? I'm using Dark Reader and uBlock Origin

DarkReader is open-source, and on the Firefox recommended extensions list; what are you talking about?

Many "recommended" add-ons have terrible reviews because of some very negative aspect they have. And I am not talking for myself, its just the reviews. The reason I made the comment is to make people aware of it, no criticism behind.
