@swimboy I don't have that option here, it should be a Mac specific one. If the dedicated GPU is better, you may try using it.

As far as I know, WebGL depends on hardware acceleration, so it being disabled caused the message on the page.

Unless you are using a very old computer or one with a weak hardware, I don't see a reason to not have hardware acceleration enabled.

(from the OP)

I think I have cracked it!

In Opera/Preferences/Privacy there is an on/off option (which I vaguely remember altering in the past 10 days):

"Block ads and surf the web up to three times faster”

When I turned this off, Ridewithgps once again worked as expected.

Thanks for your interest; this thread can now be closed.

@leocg Yes I did, but the somewhat generic pages suggest that Opera Mini is only available for Android.

Thanks, macfreek. That was helpful.

And 'they' (who ever 'they' is) say that Opera is not a secure browser.

I say 'Pah!!!' to that, they know nothing.
