Created attachment 9194895 Bug 1678652 - Disable failIfMajorPerformanceCaveat by default. The goal of the WebGL Working Group was for failIfMajorPerformanceCaveat to allow websites to make better choices about which content to serve to users, ideally via offering a choice to users. I no longer think that this is useful here, or rather it's only ever useful in the very narrow case: When a website does indeed have a fallback ready, and the fallback does actually have better perf. Today this is only true on some Windows systems that have cpu-emulated webgl, but gpu-accelerated canvas2d, but this is not most systems. Simultaneously, we've seen a disappointingly large set of websites break for users that hit the failIfMajorPerformanceCaveat path. Since the usefulness of failIfMajorPerformanceCaveat is very limited, and many sites don't cooperate with us (as the user's User Agent), I think it's best to disable failIfMajorPerformanceCaveat for the time being. -- 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: Fix Released Status in firefox package in Ubuntu: Fix Committed Bug description: Upon upgrading from Firefox 82 to to Firefox 83, WebGL stops working.

After bug 1680595, it should be more clear to (power) users what they can do to mitigate this. Functionality here is, I think, working as intended now. Unfortunately the specified behavior causes certain websites (which arguably may have made poor choices) work worse for our users, whereas before things were maybe slower than they could have been, but otherwise functional. With that in mind, since we're now following failIfMajorPerformanceCaveat spec properly, it's causing breakage. This bug is tracking the user pain-point. In order to solve the user pain- point, we might ditch failIfMajorPerformanceCaveat as accidentally- user=hostile for the time being. Two choices: 1. Call these bad websites, and try outreach/education 2. Re-evaluate the failIfMajorPerformanceCaveat mechanism entirely -- 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: Confirmed Status in firefox package in Ubuntu: Fix Committed Bug description: Upon upgrading from Firefox 82 to to Firefox 83, WebGL stops working.

What do you expect? 🤣 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"!
