The last one is the most confusing me.
How Seamonkey introduses itself to web-servers and how can I change
it any way?
Is it possible to masqarade SM as Firefox?
Walt, might it be worthwhile the OP editing about:config by adding a
UserAgent override preference??
2.49.5 is in the works but won't help here. github and other major sites
just do the wrong or deliberate to shut out browsers user agent sniffing
of the day. 2.53 now reports itself as Gecko 60 which helps a lot.
Feature wise it is already closer to 60 now anyway.
With the major players no longer caring about either Firefox or niche
browsers you might need a second chromium based browser installed anyway
in the near future. On Windows new Edge looks quite good to me if they
bring it to 7 and 8.1 and no one can call me a Microsoft friend :)
Of course there is still manifest V3 on the horizon.

I had to look that one up.
Manifest V3 is Chrome's blocking of ad-blockers, although I had rather
assumed that it would not necessarily be active in clones such as Opera.
Speaking strictly for myself, the only non-Seamonkey browsers I use at
all are Firefox ESR and Firefox Mobile. None of the sites I frequent
have a problem with that and if they did, I'd cease frequenting them.
