https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=255344 --- Comment #5 from Jan Beich <jbeich@FreeBSD.org> --- (Legacy) OpenGL compositing for Gtk platforms has been on ice[1] due to many regressions. WebRender needed[2] OpenGL compositing due to shared code. As WebRender matured some drivers were qualified[3]. Only Tier1 platforms were qualified, so BSDs and Solaris which also use Gtk and share widget/compositing code with Linux were left out. For example, FreeBSD would be[4] detected as OperatingSystem::Unknown. HW_COMPOSITING used to show AccelerateLayersByDefault() value but nowadays is overriden via WEBRENDER_QUALIFIED.
