I have webgl software only on chrome yet hardware accelerated on chromium on the same machine.
How can i figure out the problem? because if this happens for a lot of people then there is less incentive to use webgl in the first place.
It's also possible that nothing in about:flags
will fix this
I have tried various tips like resetting all flags, or enabling the "Override software rendering list" option and they didn't work for me
It turns out there is another place to look, under chrome://settings/
there is "Use hardware acceleration when available"
I remember now I had turned this off a few months ago as it was glitchy when using an external monitor via a Thunderbolt dock
Flipping it back on and using the laptop display only I now have nice smooth accelerated WebGL
