STR:
- Start Firefox Nightly with a fresh profile.
- In about:config, set
gfx.offscreencanvas.enabled
totrue
- Visit https://fonts.google.com/
ACTUAL RESULTS:
Google Fonts doesn't load, and instead it shows this error message:
Your browser is not currently supported. Google Fonts works best on Chrome, Firefox, Edge and Safari.
EXPECTED RESULTS:
Google Fonts should load.
Note: Per bug 1746110 (which landed but bounced), it looks like we're considering enabling this pref by default on Nighlty soon. We should probably figure out what's causing this issue with Google Fonts & get that addressed (on our end or their end) before making that pref-flip. Hence, I'm tentatively marking this as blocking bug 1746110.

We don't support text with Canvas 2D right now, so I imagine that is why it is failing. That work will be done this year. Because of the backout we decided to only ship OffscreenCanvas on certain domains (right now *.zoom.us) in the vein of an origin trial to get some of the benefit out to users as well as more testing.

This should be fixed by bug 1777287 (and possibly also bug 1072107).
