Hi,

I am trying to understand where the difference between the fields comes from:

browser, operating system vs. useragent

I see safari in the browser field and mozilla, safari in the useragent field.

Why such a difference in the data?

Browser, Version, and Operating System are are derived from the User Agent string. Those things aren’t always obvious from just looking at the User Agent. There is database of user agent strings that the MetaInfo question is using to decode the string.
