I’ve been splitting time between Lemmy and Reddit since Apollo shut down. I’ve been using the official Reddit mobile app.

I just looked at my battery stats and holy cow. It ate 40% of a full charge in 2 hours of screen time. I’m not an app developer, but that seems…bad

    TikTok is like that but it’s loading videos continuously so it makes more sense that it would use a lot. I never noticed significant battery drain with Apollo.

      There was a post on the mildlyinfuriating sub where someone had tiktok installed but hadn’t loaded it in like a month or something, but it had used a full 2GB of data. Tiktok does more than load videos.
