    Librewolf disables some canvas features because they’re a good way to fingerprint your browser. A lot of map and image manipulation stuff won’t work correctly on LibreWolf. I usually just open a Chromium private window when that happens. There’s probably a better solution, but I also have to use some sites for work that only work on chromium-based browsers as well.

      That could be. I tried the user agent switcheroo but then got stuck in a Cloudfare loop. While it worked for me in Firefox, I haven’t really fiddled much with the settings in it so it probably didn’t offer much protection and I didn’t do a private window. I think the best answer, for me, is to keep things like this partitioned off from some main browsing session. Not my area of expertise!
