A web page that tells you what your browser gave away the moment you arrived. No login, no form, no permission. Most pages do this. None of them tell you.
I used to make websites back in the 2000s. Hit trackers collected this info back then too. Knowing screen resolutions is useful for designing the website. Knowing all this info in general is helpful. If 99% of your visitors are coming from the US with a screen resolution of 1080p and are using Firefox, you know not to worry too much about making the site compatible with Netscape Navigator, 640x480 monitors, and translating everything to French.
I am surprised by this site knowing my graphics card. I don’t know why modern web developers would need to know that. I’ve been out of the game so long. Perhaps it’s useful info.
Edit:
I’m also always surprised/saddened that today nobody on the Internet seems to know anything at all about making websites. This kind of thing was common knowledge back in the 2000s.
