How do I set browser to permanently open in desktop mode (on android tablet). I hate the "mobile" view on facebook and moving tab to desktop view for every page is ridiculous and frequently doesnt work. I just downloaded latest version of FF specifically to run as a separate browser for Facebook (to isolate it since I am new to FB) but not being able to use the desktop view is making me consider deleting it.

Hi

This is currently unavailable in Firefox for Android as it is generally expected for websites to provide a suitable browsing experience on a mobile device (many do).

Seburo, Thank you for your response. It is unfortunate that there is not a work around to allow users to decide how they want to do/view their browsing. I guess I will have to continue searching for a browser that allows users to decide. Again, I appreciate your time.
