What specific section or headline is this issue about?

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Reference/Headers/User-Agent/Firefox#firefox_for_fire_tv and below

What information was incorrect, unhelpful, or incomplete?

There's a lot of content for products no longer shipping, as FirefoxOS, or Firefox for Fire TV & Echo Show that might have a historic value, but given are long deprecated and unsupported ideally should not be hierarchically on the same level as the active products (and maybe even little pruned for brevity for today's needs)?

What did you expect to see?

I expected the local nav sidebar be more concise, without long list of abandoned products just next to the current products:

 sidebar

Do you have any supporting links, references, or citations?

No response

Do you have anything more you want to share?

Not sure if completely removing the sections, or keeping them shorter and bundled together under one chapter as legacy UAs is better.

To keep the old fragments working, would nesting the headings to a lower level still work for permalinks with anchor ids, but hiding them from the sidebar navigation?
