I would agree with other posters that it's already like that, reddit.com, one of the biggest websites in the internet, will ask if you want to continue on chrome or the app if accessing from a mobile phone, essentially calling the mobile browser Chrome.

It used to be like that, but not anymore. I just checked and if you access it through Firefox, it will have Firefox in the prompt.

To be fair to the internet at large, I'm 100% convinced that whoever develops the Reddit website intentionally makes it obnoxiously unusable. Even on a relatively beefy desktop I can't scroll past more than five or six videos before the video player becomes unusable. Opening a reddit link on mobile is a guarantee to get an ad for their app that requires several click to bypass. It's like they're deliberately ruining the experience in everything but their app to feed their ever growing hunger for more user data. It's the worst website I regularly visit by a mile.

  Even besides the performance issues, the UI is unusable (at least for people without accounts.) Many times I have found reddit links that seem relevant in my search results; I click through to the link to read the reddit discussion, read one or two comments (because that is all their UI will fit onto my screen) and scroll down to read more. Suddenly I'm looking at another reddit discussion about a different topic entirely. What the fuck? Incidentally the problem (bug? feature?) goes away if you have javascript disabled.

From what I remember, it labeled the option "Browser" but always used the Chrome logo for it.
