Twitch.TV will tell you that you need to use a supported browser if you connect with Linux in your user agent no matter what browser you use. Changing Linux to Windows in your agent with no other changes resolves this issue.
Sure, you can lie to get around restrictions that only care about useragent. But it is still clear as day what platform you are using, even against basic threat actors. It is not “anti-malware” and it reduces the pool of users you blend in with. Firefox’s privacy.resistFingerprinting preference uses the anti-fingerprinting strategy of “normalize metrics to create a crowd” (inherited from Tor browser), but this is on a per-OS basis because it is impossible to effectively lie about your platform (ei. a pool of Windows RFP users, MacOS, and BSD, etc).
