No, what this means is sites might start adopting features like PassKeys - a major browser feature that works in every browser except FireFox and one where you just might not be able to access the service, at all, unless your browser has support.
(Passkeys are a replacement for passwords - essentially the idea is to take the technology commonly used for second factor authentication and use it as your “first factor” instead)

Funny cause it works fine in my browser with a bitwarden plugin. I don’t need and actually REALLY don’t want my browser handling my passwords… or passkeys… or whatever the fuck authenticates me.
So changing the user agent to chrome to fool websites that work shittier on non chromium stuff will ruin this metric?

I use 1password for passkeys on FF, works great.
I know your point is native, just want to point it out.
Maybe its because I’m on Nightly but PassKeys work natively for me on Windows 11 with Firefox already
I’m using passkeys in Firefox everyday just fine.
No, what I mean is “metric” as in data about users per browser.
