I was back on Firefox for a few months, and it's noticeably slower and drains battery (on M2 Air).

Take a look at Zen browser - it's a fork of firefox ESR, with some dramatic UI changes made to look similar to the Arc browsers.

I've been using it on my Mac M1 and I only notice the memory footprint when I have > 30 - 40 tabs open.

If Safari is OK you could move to Orion: https://kagi.com/orion/

I would love to but I can't use the MacOS default password manager :(

Safari supports 3rd-party password managers like 1password no problem.

I tried it briefly but I think it's semi-abandoned? Maybe I should give it another shot. Only non negociables for me are Stylish and Violentmonkey.
