    Why would you not use a server with webgl support if that's a requirement? I feel like the moment this would become an issue you are already at an scale that would make sense.

      Our service is offered starting for free; the CPU server is much cheaper, and I wanted to see if it could be sufficient for most basic WebGL animations.

      The GPU tier makes sense for paid users; that will be the next blog post!

    Chrome doesn't render WebGL. ANGLE does.

    Why the gap is 4×. The change: One line.

    The catch: You need a display

    Why Mesa is built from source. Proving it.

    That report is also the CI gate! The numbers.

      Indeed, the post is rather obviously written by Claude. It's just missing a few "load-bearing"s and a "golden", so that I could have the full picture.

        It's sorely missing a few figurative usages of "quietly", too. And not to forget the "honest caveats" and "smoke tests".
