Steps to reproduce:

Now that android 15+ switched to use vulkan api for the graphic driver I want to use vulkan on firefox too.
Vulkan is more efficient than opengl, so the phone user interface is faster and uses less battery.
All applications (including chromium browsers) that I've tried are using vulkan, except firefox 😢
to test it you have to enable gpuwatch to see what gfx driver is used.
please enable vulkan.

Actual results:

gpuwatch shows firefox not using vulkan api.

Expected results:

firefox should use vulkan and not opengl.
