MacBook Air M1 battery draining fast

Hello,
has anyone else noticed an issue where the M1 MacBook Air battery drains fast? I'm on 14.1. I feel like the battery life was way better on Venture etc.
Am I the only one?

Me neither and the battery discharging has been just crazy fast. I am talking about surfing the web. It drops like 1% a minute sometimes and only with Safari open. Before that I was impressed by the battery life of MacBook Air M1. Glad that I'm not the only one having this issue.

That's sad to hear!

Apple must test the new OSs on all the laptops they are currently selling, plus those going back several years. So, what's the deal?

I'm honestly thinking of downgrading to Ventura, but it's time consuming. My battery has never dropped so fast. I don't even know why it's even dropping. I even dont have live wallpapers. I'm not even using Chrome or anything and even only with Safari open it drops crazy fast. It was fine with Ventura and older operating systems but ever since I upgraded it has started to drop fast.
