Firefox for Android
My Android 11 Lenovo 10" tablet will not display the desktop version of any site, despite having both menu switches set to DT. It's particularly annoying on sites like Wikipedia where I am registered and have configured the WikiP user settings for a style that has worked for me for 15 years. The two views are switchable in Chrome, but suddenly Firefox is only displaying the mobile page. I am trying to migrate to primarily using Firefox to escape the big G marketing artillery barrage and totally overreaching information piracy framework. Any suggestions out there? I wonder if Android itself could be responsible?

Hey there! The issue you described is basically caused by Lenovo's hard-coded mobile user-agent and DPR (device pixel ratio) that override your settings.
Luckily, Firefox can override their override.. Open about:config in a new tab. Search for "general.useragent.override" Set the value to "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/130.0.0.0 Safari/537.36" Close and restart Firefox. Every site will be displayed in Desktop Mode.
Avoid automatic Lenovo updates as they might change your settings back.
Does that help?
Thanks for the quick response! I'm a retired engineer and will give it a shot, you sound familiar with the issue. My notepad is running Android 11 and Lenovo stopped supporting it a couple of years ago. I'm building a new DT as I can't stand Android anymore. Need to get back to Linux to figure out why my 300 Mbs fiber connection can only manage 3 Mbs if I'm lucky and times out on half the browser requests.
I'll assume this solved, if not will let you know. Thanks again.
