Thanks for the details Pat. Not sure what is going on, but it is good to know that this is fixed in the upcoming firefox 84. Let's see if upstream can shed some light on the problem in the bug report you filed there.

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.
