I know I can spoof my useragent, it's just ridiculous that such a massive app doesn't support an equally massive browser.

I don't think they ever did that, otherwise add-ons like "Google search fixer" that change the user agent wouldn't exist. (My fix in that case is don't use Google at all - installing an add-on otherwise amp links aren't shown and the useless ai search isn't available doesn't make sense, that's a plus)

I thought the Google search fixer was only for mobile.

I have no idea, I find no use for that as I'm not using Google
