I mean I guess it was most likely part of the developer teams goal of completely ruining Firefox mobile, but in case it wasn't. Why WHY in the name of all that is holy is this not a feature? If i want the desktop site, and set's it manually it usually loads just fine. But if i sneeze or think about changing tabs or clicking a link, it reverts to the crappy mobile version... I want it to default to the desktop site.....

Hi

This is something that we are currently working on and hope to include in a future update very soon (it is currently in our Nightly version while it is being tested).

I have nightly but see no obvious about:config toggles. I couldn't find anything helpful on the github page either. How do I enable it?
