    As you see, Unity Hub consumes most of the battery's energy, more than Photoshop and Maya.
    30% battery's energy in half an hours. I have to use power adapter.
    The CPU fan kept turning and the sound was very loud.

    Probably because it has 3 versions of itself running needlessly in the background at all times, wasting ram and resources. Unity Hub : Solving problems you don't have, while leaving all the bugs in Unity.

    You can kill Unity Hub after Unity launch.
    I don't know what is doing, data / coins mining, or whatever.

    If I kill Unity Hub after Unity launch. A Popup window and a loading status show all the time, I cannot close and skip it.

    Hmm.
    Maybe Unity Hub on mac / linux / windows are treated differently, as on windows that trick works fine for me.
