macOS Big Sur - Hackdot

Besides its ad blocking limitations, I'm disappointed that Safari doesn't support WebGL 2 by default. It is the only one of the mainline browsers that doesn't. Firefox, Chrome, and even Edge have had it enabled for eons.

Good news: WebGL 2 support is now enabled by default in Safari Technology Preview, as of September. Please give it a try now before it goes out in a Safari release and file bugs if you see any issues.

I recall reading something from an Apple engineer about fixing something before enabling WebGL 2.0 by default.

But it's only a click away:

    Develop > Experimental Features > WebGL 2.0

The problem persists when wanting to deploy something using webgl2, since the vast majority of Safari users will not have changed the default.

This.

Also, it’s more than one touch away on iPhone. And I’m not sure you can force it in a web view.
