    Why not? It’s already executing code on your CPU unless you run noscript or similar…

    Are there other features you’ve turned off? WebRTC perhaps? Others?

      Why not?

      If I don’t know what your code is doing, and I can’t modify it, I don’t want it. Are you rendering a cube? Are you mining crypto on my machine? And why would I need GPU-rendering? Webpages should be text, images and hierarchy.

      That’s true! Now guess what extension I’m using

      Are there other features you’ve turned off?

      You bet. Some I tolerate not disabled, but spoofed or containerised per site.

        I make games for Ludum Dare fairly frequently, and it’ll be a nice feature, because a lot of people will refuse to download a game and only play web versions.

        Other than that case, I agree. What’s the point? Your page probably shouldn’t be doing anything where it needs the GPU. What information is a page trying to present that a GPU is better at rendering than the CPU? Maybe very niche topics, but usually text is ideal.

        Sounds like a pretty solid setup, I also like temporary containers solutions as well, less hassle IMO.
