On Firefox Nightly on my Steam Deck it "cannot find WebGPU in the environment".

Last I checked ff explicitly does not support webgpu, webhid, webusb, etc.

Apparently nightly is supposed to support it: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Firefox/Exp...

So here's a howler to the new Mozilla CEO and FF teams who're looking for ways to save their org:

- release WebGPU support everywhere, also embed llama.cpp or something similar for non GPU users

- add UI for easy model downloading and sharing among sites

- write the LLM browser API that enables easy access and sets the standard

- add security: "this website wants to use local LLM. Allow?"

There’s also the little issue of firefox not supporting HDR videos which with more and more OLED/miniLED monitors out there is a major drawback. I love FF and i daily drive it, but there are some glaring gaps in the feature set between chromium and ff.

Hmm but what about another mobile phone OS instead? Or a vpn service? Surely people don't care about browser features.

I had the same issue on my iPhone! You can (temporarily) enable WebGPU by going to Settings > Safari > Advanced > Experimental features (I don't know what it's called in English, but it's the bottom one).
