I don't believe I've changed my user agent ever, and here's what I'm told mine is: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:78.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox= /78.0 If you want to experiment with it you can send a patch (and tag me) and I'll build icecat locally and check it out and let you know how it goes. Icecat builds fairly quickly for me. --=20 Efraim Flashner =D7=90=D7=A4=D7=A8=D7=99=D7=9D = =D7=A4=D7=9C=D7=A9=D7=A0=D7=A8 GPG key =3D A28B F40C 3E55 1372 662D 14F7 41AA E7DC CA3D 8351 Confidentiality cannot be guaranteed on emails sent or received unencrypted --bt3tw4M9UPVkajA5 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQIzBAABCgAdFiEEoov0DD5VE3JmLRT3Qarn3Mo9g1EFAmELmrIACgkQQarn3Mo9 g1F17g/8C3bLON7diTlFVOyCYEA/vYvi1O4XrbwSTjDD9Zed+YdSxbE6R8busAXo lQXklPVnp5ScZE6JdOhQS26W/AWF2oUMZy3nNsWdhgeTJuz3tmSVZIBWw0BJvkgW G5tlcb0DMHFn0SCapnAIbF2CJIIMAadlJeqAp+NeJFb0XV3LRhSW8OSjYLaIyXLD TZJhE/NTY4LlmbLMTCX09bAkVbpY3YzyfEvDS63ufK0//z2SIM0xHIeYjCeM2wzB xSuGjqaGccVPCYvlpH5L9sJ8W9mC6W/llHRmTRnDFuNZryOb/UoTwCwuOEJ1bN/U Og2Rveu765vCTYDyXqD8xy66D85gzH//xBK2AsXsJnA9ldwBMXfZH61tw35FSdBU R68ARAg5T4rVcF6/2Kdh2/WhjADLdAEZR+zEP7o7RDwZUWuDlhomq2DxmT4aAVdY 0QpvbfoZsBbVSYmVnONh70QNHnuA+cMAb8gkNwxrrRp1uDX0WCaYx+gy8xVzkfTg rGQ7eWEZ3GoeYwppnNUnxxUu35dyJ4OI2IZxIK1dywkokDnqeXA91YCJ6f/aMDOg 93nFCXjLZOTsfXnK8tD8ECOX/L0G7i5GF7HpNgcMHSrxqlvL8TAWRWBZl9NhdwsH RBL4I+v2I59KF6Jd1nFD8ybb7w3vJ0zjNJSlJrWVb+lHQoyKyRg= =58V2 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --bt3tw4M9UPVkajA5--
