New map issues

[arkasha]

Hi all, starting a topic for folks to report issues with the new maps. As stated in the news, our Google Mapping bill was stratospheric under their new billing policy, so we're trying out a new mapping system. We've cleaned up some initial Safari issues, and I think we're in a working beta, but if you have problems, let us know here!

First issue: Tor Browser locks down WebGL features to prevent some browser fingerprinting (which is good), but it results in broken maps.

Following this report: https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/27290 I was able to get the maps working in TorBrowser using the following steps:

visit about:config in the browser link bar, and accept the conditions to reconfigure your browser. then modify the following
settings:
webgl.disable-extentions: false
webgl.disable-fail-if-major-performance-caveat: false
webgl.enable-webgl2: true
webgl.min_capability_mode: false
