MODERATORS
That's a shit take. What's the point of having user-agents if it's just a race to the bottom for only supporting a smaller list arbitrarily? It's not like the bots aren't going to just spoof as Chrome on Windows 11 anyways.
Which bots use Palemoon as their UA string?
Zero, it's always outdated versions of Firefox or Chrome (if a UA is even provided at all)
Yes
