Default Please Stop Forcing Mobile Site on Android Chrome Browser

Can we Please Top Forcing the Mobile Site on Android?

My Tablet handled the Old Site via "Request Desktop Site" Option.
The Mobile Site is Poorly/Half Done...
The "Garage Talk" App does not allow me to login via Facebook which no one has figured out how I can Transfer my Account from a Facebook Login to a regular one...

So now I cannot do much of anything on CorvetteForum on My Android Tablet, which is how I come to this site 75% of the Time

The option is cookie-based in your browser.

So if you keep getting the mobile view despite you already selected the full view previously, then there's a corrupt browser cookie in your browser or you are deleting browser cookies (manually or automatically).

The option is not being forced. By default, the mobile view is shown because many might not know it exists. If browser cookies are working normally and also not being deleted, opting out of the mobile view will display the full view without further steps.

Seems to have fixed itself choosing "Full site" a couple times, Thanks.
