After four years with my iPhone, it's at 86% health. Mind you, it's been 
at 86% health for a while now... probably two years. Not bad for a 
"crappy" battery.

Why does anyone need to have that many tabs open, I wonder? Either way, 
I've recently made the switch to Safari as my main browser on the Mac. 
For the PCs I own, I will continue to use Brave but only because there 
is no PC version of Safari. Once I found out about the iCloud relay on 
Safari if you have an iCloud account, I was sold. It also seems to drain 
a lot less than competing browsers.
