Does it make a difference which one I use? I am using an old phone (~5 years old). Currently using liftoff! and connect. Feel like my phone is dying a lot quicker since I switched from using infinity for reddit a month or so ago

You should use one with an AMOLED dark mode. Usually the screen uses the most battery and if your phone supports AMOLED it actually turns the pixels off to make blacks, which is more energy efficient. I have Connect, Liftoff, and Jerboa and they all offer it as a theme option although Jerboa calls it System Black (I think that’s the same thing anyway).
But only if you actually have an (AM)OLED phone. On OLED only bright pixels consume power. On LCD the backlight is equally as bright, no matter of the pixel colors, and actually, dark pixels consume very slightly more power than bright pixels.
Interesting point! I do have an amoled phone (had to look it up - it’s a oneplus 6T). Will make sure dark mode is on
