Battery life on Ubuntu with AMD (alien.top)

Out of curiosity, I've seen decent things about the battery life improvement with the new AMD boards in Windows. What's the battery life like in linux, particularly Ubuntu? Experiences with other distros also welcome.

Thinking of giving Linux an actual shot this time around as a daily driver.

Thanks!

Have you tried the Firefox flatpak for watching YouTube? I understand the hardware acceleration works better on that.

Interesting, I haven't but I'll try that out.
