		pmarreck on Dec 7, 2018 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: Goodbye, EdgeHTML Thanks to this comment I decided to download Firefox Nightly and turn on WebRender. (Was it on by default 2 months ago and then no longer?) For anyone unaware, WebRender is a new compositing engine for Firefox written from the ground up in Rust that runs on the GPU.

Hey I'm glad you gave it a try! I think it was turned on for Windows 10 nightly users with Nvidia cards. Not sure if they added more users since then.

What do you think if you don't mind me asking?

Don’t really see that many differences from Chrome yet
