I doubt that they read those
Let them lose 3% of their business if Linux only
What is ff market share?
Similar but a bit over 5% if targeting desktop https://gs.statcounter.com/browser-market-share
While there is overlap it definitely isn't 1:1 though. There are tons of ff non-linux users and tons of Linux non-ff users.
This isn't to detract from what you said, just add to it.
not just Linux though, wouldn't this happen on windows FF as well?
They’ll lose maybe a dozen people on Linux/Firefox and they know it. Not even a rounding error since chromium is near monopoly status
They won't even lose a dozen. Itidd be like 5 after the rest spoof their user agents
People for sure read them.
