[Fixed] Disabling WebGL breaks lichess.org
Posted: Mon Sep 16, 2024 2:27 am
NoScript 11.4.38rc2

STR:
1) NoScript Options > General > Trusted, un-check "webgl"
2) NoScript Options > Per-site Permissions, set lichess.org and lichess1.org Trusted (with HTTPS-only lock selected)
3) go to https://lichess.org/analysis, toggle the switch to enable Stockfish analysis ("SF 16") and play any series of moves on the chessboard until it no longer analyzes in the cloud
Expected results: Stockfish engine loads and starts to analyze locally
Actual results: Stockfish engine either gets stuck loading or the page produces an error. But there is no sign that the site is trying to use WebGL.
With NoScript 11.4.36rc1 it works as expected with WebGL disabled.
