MD uses a Javascript framework for their UI. So unlike sensibly designed websites, this one doesn't even load with Javascript turned off. A consequence of that is that instead of your browser rendering the page and then being done, logic is running constantly.
For me (Mac OS, latest updates), MD's javascript only seems to freak out if I have several open tabs of different MD pages. I'm guessing there's some sort of polling against a shared resource or similar, and am also very happy that my job isn't troubleshooting it.

I do not see this, have you looked at Activity Monitor to see which process is doing this? The Energy tab may be the most telling.

jceaserI've used process explorer and 100% it's the browser. I can even see that there is only one subprocess that is eating the CPU, and when I close the massdrop tab, that subprocess dissapears and the CPU goes down. Could it be that you have a multicore CPU and the browser is "only" at 50% or 25% ?

Chrome browser? I noticed the Chrome Helper task fires up in the background and eats cycles like a game of Hungry Hippos! Purportedly its related to certain types of code on a site, like Flash and some others. Not sure what the answer is.

Does the ALT v2 PCBA support USB-C e-marked cables?
Currently my ALT v1 does not work with e-marked USB-C cables. I was wondering if the v2 PCBA does support these types of cables (thunderbolt 4 cable for example)?

How do you do per-key RGB lighting on a Shift V2?
I saw the online configurator that lets you do this on the Shift V1, where it spits out a compiled firmware file to flash. The V2 doesn't seem to have this function in the Windows configurator, though. I can't imagine the answer here is "you're going to have to manually write the hex for every key in QMK, compile it, and flash that".
