Linux Mint with Mate DE.

I don’t have and have never had anything confidential in Discord and IRC. I use this to chat with strangers in thematic chats.

Social network Friendica (venera.social instanc), Hubzilla (freehub.space instanc), Misskey (misskey.social instanc). And also, I have many accounts on various servers in Mastodon, PixellFeed and PeerTube. Moreover, some of these servers are no longer available at the moment. I have been interested in this topic for many years and have researched different servers. By the way, I also had accounts in the Diaspora social network on several servers.

My first Linux distribution was Mandriva 2010. I still like OpenMandriva, Mageia and Rosa, but now my laptop runs on FreeBSD with KDE.

This can be done without using extensions, but it’s just more convenient with this. For example, the Firefox browser has a settings menu available at: about:config. You need to create a string named general.useragent.override and assign it the desired value. For example, if you write there it is Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; en), sites will think that you are using the Internet Explorer browser on Windows. You can also set this parameter only for a specific site. For example, create the line “general.useragent.override.google.com” and assign it the desired value.

It is open, but not free. Although, everything is relative, of course. I feel sorry for the developer of the MyPal browser. He shouldn’t have messed with this. It was necessary to do it on the basis of Chromium, as everyone does.
