WHY?
Will SeaMonkey fans ('SM lovers' didn't sound
right) really have to use a different User-Agent
for each and every web sight?

I use a user-agent override that claims to be
Firefox 62. That works well for me.
What is a user-agent override and how do I get (and
use/install) it?
about:config then add an entry like this:
general.useragent.override.youtube.com user set string
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:67.0)
Gecko/20100101 Firefox/68.0
Or better add this line in user.js
user_pref("general.useragent.override.youtube.com",
"Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:67.0)
Gecko/20100101 Firefox/68.0");
I find a about:config called
general.useragent.site_specific_overrides;true
but I do not find a file user.js -you're over my head.
You have to create it, it is not created by default. Location
is in your profile directory. Easiest way to locate is
Help > Troubleshooting Information > Application Basics >
Profile Folder
click Open Folder button.
okayyy, thanks for the explicit instructions. Much better way
to Not shoot myself in the foot! Will let you know results
later.
https://studio.youtube.com/ will not function with Firefox
compatibility.
Is this 'user.js' used by SM(64) and SM(32) ?
Weeellll!! It *CAN* be used by SM .... but is not usually created, it is
created when needed if the User wants to do something different/unusual
ever time.
Your 'normal' set-up information is stored in a *TEXT* file in your SM
profile called *prefs.js* . When you alter something by entering
'about:config' in the Browsers address line, that change is stored in
your *prefs.js* file and stays there .... until you change it again!!
Alternatively, if you want something to start off the same, every time
you start SM, you can store that setting in a text file called *user.js*
which is, basically, a straight *text* file, who's content is read into
*prefs.js* every time you start SeaMonkey.
*NOTE* user.js (and prefs.js) are straight TEXT files so should be
created using a TEXT editor like Notepad or Wordpad, *Not* by a
Word processor such as MSOffice or LibreOffice.
