The examples in this link don't work for me in the latest Firefox or Chromium (or Brave) on Linux. https://blog.mecheye.net/2018/03/deconstructing-the-water-ef...

Edit: neither does anything here: https://noclip.website/

Blame your graphics drivers. The lack of working modern graphics on Linux is one of the reasons I moved away from it. It works fine for me locally, so it's an issue with your machine. Stare at chrome://gpu and https://webglreport.com/?v=2 for a bit, or maybe file a bug with your graphics driver.

It doesn't work in Firefox for Mac either.

It does in Chrome.
