Comment:
We made the conscious decision to use a mobile user agent for Orfox so
that you would receive mobile formatted sites when browsing. This means
your user-agent is within the set of Firefox for Android users on the same
version, etc, and definitely within the pool of 1 million or so current
Orfox users.
Even if we used the same TBB user agent, the size of your screen/browser
window would fairly clearly indicate you were on an Android device, or at
least a mobile device.
There is only so much we can do at this time.
