Could someone remind me again how to lie to a specific website about my
user agent? They're doing bad browser sniffing and refuse to play until
I prove that I have at least Firefox 47 [sic].

Here are two examples from my user.js:

user_pref("general.useragent.override.independent.co.uk", "Mozilla/5.0
(X11; Linux x86_64; rv:59.0) Gecko/2018010400 Firefox/59.0
SeaMonkey/2.56a1-h");

user_pref("general.useragent.override.whatsapp.com", "Mozilla/5.0
(Windows NT 10.0; WOW64; rv:52.0)  Gecko/20100101 Firefox/63.0")

Thanks. Will give it a shot.

... but, Paul, note that the two user prefs Hartmut gave you are overrides for specific web sites, so may not fix your problem.

However, they may indicate have to set your own override for the specific sites you are having problems with!!
