If I was a Firefox dev I’d start looking into building in user agent spoofing right into the browser.
It already opens Facebook pages in a special isolated tab. They could have apple.com open in it’s own special “safari” tab. I wonder if there’s anything preventing them from doing that. I guess it could be bad because it would make their market share appear even smaller.

The irony of Firerfox officially agent spoofing while everyone else uses some variant of “Mozilla” as their UAS is too much.
I think user agent scrambling is part of privacy.resistFingerprinting, but it’s a controversial feature and breaks a lot of webpages

That article is great! I have it linked on my website next to the text that displays the user agent of the user.
That’s was interesting to read.
