Desktop View as toggle default

[Divisionic]

Firefox Mobile (for Android), especially on Tablets, desperately needs the Desktop view Setting as an Toggle default option, with the choice of enabling it or disabling for the current website.

Reason for that is, that during the usage on Samsung DeX (I'd like to imagine that this is a rather neglected part of usage for many developers), the app is basically displayed as a mobile site like it was if it were to be in pop view, which is alright on mobile devices, but on Tablets, it's a necessity to set them straight as Desktop Windows.

Samsung own Browser has the ability to default into Desktop View, the only drawback is that the pinch zoom can't be disabled. It's possible, and I do believe it shouldn't take long for implementation.

(In the Screenshot provided it detects if it's in DeX mode or not, which isn't what I mean. A simple toggle would basically be this feature)

Desktop mode by default

You're losing users right now!

I find mobile web design reprehensible. Absolutely unusable.

But I'm not going to toggle the switch everytime I open the app. Everytime I refresh the page. Every time I go to a new site. I'm going to switch to literally any other browser which has a persistant desktop mode.

I'm sure a significant quantity of users would use a persistant desktop mode option. Some (like me) require it. Others are probably willing to use mobile sites, but unhappy about it.

You've already lost me as a user. If you act soon, you can stop losing others.
