Interesting that Firefox by default did not render the fizzbuzz demo correctly by default.
I had to click the canvas icon next to address bar and allow the canvas usage.
And it did not show a prompt either. It just looked broken by default.

- fouc 5y agoFF 89 worked fine here (mac), either your FF version is old or it's some sort of FF/linux issue ?
- smichel17 5y ago...Good! The "prompt" permission model is fundamentally broken, because all it does is train you to click through the prompt. The "click the blocking button and turn it off" model is much better. It still trains you to turn off blocking when something is broken. However, crucially, that's only when it's broken. When it's not broken, you just use the site, instead of habitually clicking through the permission prompt that's just harvesting data, not actually needed to function. And yes, malicious sites can of course display themselves as falsely broken until you grant the permissions. But this makes them more annoying to use, granting a UX edge to the honest sites which don't request unnecessary permissions. In other words, the incentives of sites and users are more aligned.
- singularity2001 5y ago>>> all it does is train you to click through the prompt. no, if I want extra functionality, I click it, otherwise I ignore it. (random page wants my location? nah) modular blocking prompts were broken, optional prompts are fine
- dimes 5y agoYou probably have resist fingerprinting turned on
- Jnr 5y agoMost likely. I don't remember all the settings that I have turned on at some point. :)
