It depends for what Apps you need them. Often Apps like Signal or Element support getting Notifications via a persistent Server connection or asking every so often for Notifications. Even tho i could not find any source, i found that this works with Whatsapp(sadly have to use it) too.
What did i just watch and how can i unsee it?
It is a Browser Engine. This: https://servo.org/
There is also Ladybird: https://ladybird.org/
Signal uses 2% a day and Element 1%. I do not really think this is significant.
