Linux has now hit 3% according to sat counter. It isn't has obscure as it was in the past and I think it is a lot less of a privacy risk.

I also know a significant number of Linux users who use librewolf. This means that the user share might be a bit higher

I'm thinking it should mimic the most common user agent available (guessing Edge's whatever it is), refreshed on updates. At the very least it should be far easier to configure. As it stands changes in About:config are not recognized.

Are we really thinking people regularly check browser rankings and go out and try new ones that are trending? That doesn't ring true to me. I try a new browser if I see a recommendation, if ever.
