WebGPU only got started in 2021, so Im not sure what you mean. Could you explain? (Or are you thinking of WebGL?)
WebGPU is newer, but lacks modern functionality because it was made to support ancient smartphones. That's great if you want to support ancient smartphones, but not if you want to utilize modern desktop GPUs.
