It sounds like the Google Maps team started using failIfMajorPerformanceCaveat, but might be going about it in a user-hostile way! For Firefox, if you check in the Web Console for that page, if you get a message that mentions failIfMajorPerformanceCaveat, then you can bypass this to restore webgl creation via about:config, by setting "webgl.disable-fail-if-major-performance-caveat" to "true"! Does that help for you? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to firefox in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1905054 Title: Firefox 83 Breaks WebGL Status in Mozilla Firefox: New Status in firefox package in Ubuntu: Fix Committed 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.
