Windows regressed the most, but macOS and Linux also regressed some. Windows also regressed on 2021-01-24 (86 Nightly), but neither macOS nor Linux regressed then.

Looking at older telemetry, this recent Windows regression might be a reversal of an earlier, discontinuous improvements in CHECKERBOARDING_SEVERITY in 2020:

Is this a regression from enabling the SW-WR fallback in bug 1689203?
