what's a useragent and what does it do for me?
The User Agent is how your browser identifies itself to a webserver so that the server knows what is and isn't supported.

For example, here is the Useragent string sent by Firefox on my X86-64 laptop

Code:

Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:109.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/115.0
Some sites won't work properly with user agents they don't recognise, like having ARM instead of x86_64 so you can use an extension to report a different one for specific sites.
