Yes, `WebGL2 is entirely unusable with Firefox 68 for everyone* with Nvidia cards on Linux` if they're using open source drivers. Let's hope for another dot release though! Current solution is to use https://beta.mozilla.org (Firefox 69) or https://nightly.mozilla.org (Firefox 70). Firefox ESR 68.1 will be released together with Firefox 69 on [2019-09-03](https://wiki.mozilla.org/Release_Management/Calendar)... The blocklist entry is meant to block old proprietary drivers: WebGL 1 + 2 do work with recent [proprietary](https://www.google.com/search?q=linus+nvidia&client=firefox-b-d&tbm=isch) drivers, so this would be a "solution", too.
