Error: failed to create webgl context: err 0

Suspected cause

WebGL context creation fails on low-memory or GPU-constrained browsers while Search or Home renders WebGL-dependent UI. Crash resurfaced on 9.4.43+ after prior fix was paid/closed.

Reproduction

Unknown — see Sentry events. Prior tracker focused on /home; new events also on /search.
