Why does the useragent show Firefox v52 while I use v58?

According to whoishostingthis.com/tools/user-agent, my browser's UA shows version 52.0 (https://kek.gg/i/4bFtX-.png), while I'm using Firefox 58.0.2 (https://kek.gg/i/6Y7ZCx.png). I Installed a UA switcher to see if it fixes the issue but it didn't. When the extension was active, it showed version 56 but once I disabled it, the UA showed v52 again. What can I do to make Firefox show the correct UA instead of the old version's one?

It's because you've changed the option privacy.resistFingerprinting.

Hi,

In about:config - is privacy.resistFingerprinting set to false
(default value)  ?

If that was already set to 'false', would you please take a look at this article and see if that will help  ?
