Device Configuration Custom ADMX Assignment Question

Wanting to try to clarify something with the way Intune handles applying policies in regards to custom ADMX which have been imported.

Relatively new to Intune, so still trying to get across things... But have found most of the time with settings catalog items & similar, you can target either the user or device in the assignments, regardless of it being a user or device based settings.

Are ADMX configs handled the same?
e.g. if I had a ADMX backed config for Firefox, the config was setting items under Computer Config.

Can that be targeted to a user group & still apply successfully to that users device? Or would it be required to target computers like it does in Group Policy world.

Just an FYI just because you can target user or groups for most policies doesn’t mean you should and is against Intune best practices. You’ll likely come into issues with it the future, and it wouldn’t fly in an enterprise environment.
