windy.com stopped rendering on Firefox

safarii

Is it possible to get windy.com working with these Firefox settings?

privacy.fingerprintingProtection = true

privacy.fingerprintingProtection.overrides = +AllTargets,-CSSPrefersColorScheme

Now I get (see console): ..."no user input was detected"

@safarii Unfortunately, we cannot provide the full functionality with this setup. One of used technologies on our end is WebGl, which is blocked with this setup.

@Suty WebGL is not blocked.

@safarii In general, right now there is no way how to adjust this with this setup. To get our app fully functional, please turn these off.

Hi, I second what @suty has said and I'll give a bit more detail. Your overrides block canvas readback, which we need to properly parse our data tiles. Your config worked in previous versions, because we used to do this via WebGL texture readback, but that method had poor performance. I'm afraid we won't be going back.

The problem seems to be your specific overrides, Windy works fine with just privacy.fingerprintingProtection = true on my system. Your best bet is finding a way to whitelist canvas readback for Windy in Firefox.

OK it works with these settings:

privacy.fingerprintingProtection = true
privacy.fingerprintingProtection.overrides = "+AllTargets,-CSSPrefersColorScheme"
privacy.fingerprintingProtection.granularOverrides = [ { "firstPartyDomain": "windy.com" , "overrides": "-WebGLRenderCapability,-EfficientCanvasRandomization,-CanvasExtractionBeforeUserInputIsBlocked" } ]

granularOverrides is applied ON TOP OF overrides.
