> BTW: What kind of Mac laptop do you have that you get 16 hours of battery life? My 5mo M1 barely gets 4 hours when using only video-calling, Goland, Chrome and some terminals.
Hard to say without knowing what’s running in the terminals, but I’d say Chrome/Electron (and potentially, its use of non-HW-accelerated codecs in video chat) is the likely culprit here. Not the same machine, but my M1 Pro MBP 16” can pretty easily swing a full work day flipping between Xcode and Android Studio so long as I’m using Safari for browsing.
