GitHub no longer supports old versions of Firefox
I am using Firefox 56 and getting this message
I wanted to post a workaround for any having same problem
using browser console
Services.prefs.setCharPref('general.useragent.override', 'Mozilla (rv:32) Gecko/0 Firefox/59');

Screenshot of the actual error message? GitHub is a open source software site.

anyone using firefox 58 or earlier can easily see the problem

Then that isn't supported anymore to get help. One has to move to FF63.0.1 to get updated help.
Note that the 'rv' version and Firefox are normally set to the same Firefox version.
- Services.prefs.setCharPref('general.useragent.override', ' Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; Win64; x64; rv:59.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/59.0');
Another possibility is to override the user agent only for a specific domain to Firefox 59.
- general.useragent.override.github.com = (rv:|Firefox/)\d{2}#$159

Good point as the "Mozilla (rv:32) Gecko/0 Firefox/59" is not a proper UA like "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; Win64; x64; rv:59.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/59.0" is.

I would think the OP knows what GitHub is about in use.

Or you could pay attention to the OP in that the UA was not proper.
