Firefox on Android 16, it sucks the battery up in background mode (even with permission to use background turned off).
If I manually close it no issue.

I believe you.
I also do not, and have never, experienced this. I've been using Pixel phones since the 3a in 2019/2020.
doesn't happen in my case (OnePlus 15/Android 16, Firefox background usage allowed in some "smart" mode whatever that means, doesn't suck the battery in background although it's on most of the time).
Doesn't happen in my case, either. Pixel 9a, Android 16.
I have better battery life on Furi FX1s than any of my Android devices (Pixel 6a, Fairphone 4). This is with closing applications when I no longer need them on all devices.
Sorry, forgot to say pixel 7a, not sure why I got downvoted though?
I'm still going to use Firefox, I just hope the battery issue I experience goes away.
