Enabling this was delayed / rolled back due to issues with the SteamVR runtime on macOS occurring when we disabled the macOS nano-allocator for the Firefox process to fix unrelated issues. Updates to the SteamVR runtime have corrected this. This will be re-re-enabled for FF64 on 2018-10-12. The new bug to turn on by default: Bug 1476091 ((Re-) Enable WebVR by default for macOS) _______________________________________________ dev-platform mailing list dev-platform@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-platform
