useragent override for slack.com

Post by TheRobin » 2021-01-25, 04:45

Slack.com is used by my work for team communication. Since I refuse to install their shit software, you will have to use a useragent override to access their web client.

I found this worked for me on Win 7 x64:
Mozilla/5.0 (%OS_SLICE% rv:68.9) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/68.9 (Pale Moon)

If someone can verify this I'll add it as a default site-specific override.
