Indeed, I downloaded firefox-84.0b4.tar.bz2 and WebGL works correctly in
that build.

On 84, compared to 83 above:

Title:
  Firefox 83 Breaks WebGL

Status in Mozilla Firefox:
  Unknown
Status in firefox package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Upon upgrading from Firefox 82 to to Firefox 83, WebGL stops working.
  Ubuntu 20.10 with Wayland.

  When I try to launch a webGL game:
  Failed to create WebGL context: failIfMajorPerformanceCaveat: Compositor is 
not hardware-accelerated.

  Specifically Pixi says:
  Error: WebGL unsupported in this browser, use "pixi.js-legacy" for fallback 
canvas2d support.

  Downgrading to Firefox 82 works. Not sure if this is an Ubuntu build
  issue or Firefox, so I also filed upstream as well:
  https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1678652

  I need this functionality for work, and pinning to version 82 will be
  problematic in the long-term.
