I've seen similar issues simply by using Linux as my main desktop... some sites just won't work because of it, or seem to filter out "Linux" in the user agent. Which kinda sucks.

This is one of the reasons why all of my browsers identify as a recent Chrome version. All of those problems just up and disappear. I started doing that when Google claimed (lied) that some of their products no longer support Firefox and would block me from accessing right up until my browser identified itself as Chrome. No bugs, no issues.

Could you give an example? I've been working with a Linux desktop since 2009 and everything seems to work.

Web services could have at least one developer using Firefox and another one using Safari. I'm the one with Firefox for my customers. Their web apps work with at least Chrome and Firefox. Safari is on them, if they have a Mac. Nobody ever complained.

If Safari and Firefox had the exact same lists of sites and fixes I might agree, but they don't.

Just ditch Chrome and then the website owners see shrinking traffic.

and how, pray tell, might we convince the masses to do this?

Mindcontrol, space lazers, weather machines, genetically engineer actual firefoxes. Just a few ideas worth considering.
