I'm using Ubuntu 20.04.1 LTS with firefox 83. 3D earth view was working well but since a few days, I don't have 3d anymore.

I try performance (preferences) but no change.
This only happens in Ubuntu, and only with Firefox; Chrome seems to be able to determine my current location (although slightly inaccurate). Is there any particular setting for Ubuntu to allow Firefox to determine the location properly?
Firefox does determine the location in my Mac, and Chrome does determine the location in Ubuntu, so it is something specific to Firefox in Ubuntu, which is strange since it comes installed by default and it's the default browser.
Any clue?
To try to reproduce this behavior, open https://www.google.com/maps/ and click on the location dot, allow location access when prompted.
In my case, it shows the following:
I recently installed Ubuntu 20.04 and now, while Location Services are enabled in the Settings, I do not see the location icon in my top bar, and services requiring my location cannot retrieve it.
See it is enabled in Settings:
But my top bar does not have the location icon that used to show there:
And services like Google Maps do not seem to be able to retrieve my location. See below in Firefox, even though I allowed it...
Any clue? I use Google maps on my laptop quite frequently, so it is quite important to me...
My street view in google maps stopped working in a recent update. It starts ok, and I can rotate the view, but when I move to another location I only get a black screen, and need to reenter googlemaps from the front page to get normal view again
