Description of problem:

We may ship Firefox Wayland backend by default on KDE/Wayland. Let's track various KDE issues here:

Comment 2 Martin Stransky 2021-01-30 14:41:46 UTC
Given the recent state we may want to ship WebRender by default on KDE/Plasma but disable Wayland for Basic (non-accelerated) backend due to:
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1685263

But that needs more testing before final decision.

Comment 3 Martin Stransky 2021-01-30 15:08:55 UTC
We should adapt this patch to ship WebRender on KDE/Wayland too:
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1680505

Comment 4 Martin Stransky 2021-02-01 15:25:44 UTC
WebRender should be enabled by default for AMD/Intel drivers in firefox-85.0-9.fc34 build.

Comment 5 Robert Mader 2021-02-02 12:48:26 UTC
Small heads-up: KDE/Wayland will likely break in 86 because of https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1616894 / https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=428499

Comment 6 Rex Dieter 2021-02-03 16:02:37 UTC
Upstream bug
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=428499
includes committed fixes already

Comment 7 Ben Cotton 2021-02-09 15:44:40 UTC
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 34 development cycle.
Changing version to 34.

Comment 8 Martin Stransky 2021-04-01 08:49:25 UTC
https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2021-5c58faca02 has a new Firefox update - firefox-87.0-7.fc34. It works for me correctly on Plasma/KDE but it needs more testing before we make it default.
