Desktop View does not work!

When Desktop View is set as default, your browser doesn't load ALL websites in Desktop View. Even the option to switch it on, doesn't work.

I recently switched back to Firefox from Opera due to their high security spoiling website experiences only to find this feature no longer working.

Please sort it out ASAP!!!

Hi

Do you have an example of a website where this happens?

I've noticed some small improvements but it still reverts back to mobile view. With new websites popping in and existing websites updating, this feature needs to keep with the changes.

Hi

When using a mobile device, it would be normally expected for the mobile view to be used. The option to use a desktop view is to cover off those occasional situations where a mobile view is unavailable.
