The same audience still doesn't matter today, because most just use GPUs with drivers that get black listed by browsers, making WebGL useless.

First I've heard of it - WebGL works perfectly for me, on every one of my diverse Linux desktops. Intel, AMD, nVidia, never had an issue. I've got a Google Earth tab open right now.

Last time I was downvoted to oblivion for stating that. Not a popular view on HN for some strange reason. ( Along with no one use SSB on Desktop as with the Firefox thread. )

As you can see by my comment history, I stand by my point of view and never care for votes, regardless in what direction they go.

Definitely the right approach, don't censor yourself over some imaginary internet points.
