Allow to set desktop/mobile mode per site

[NuraliMedeu]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Currently, when a user sets desktop sites to open by default, all sites (even those which do not work with touchscreens) open in desktop mode. While it's possible to open the mobile version of a problematic site by unchecking "Desktop site" in the tab menu, this setting is saved only for that tab, not for the site. This means that every time the site is opened in another tab, it loads its desktop version and the user has to uncheck "Desktop site" to use it, which is annoying.

Describe the solution you'd like

Make an option to save desktop/mobile mode for individual sites in settings and save the "Desktop site" toggle per site as opposed to per tab.

I found a solution in the form of an extension called User-Agent Switcher for Chrome . However, I will not close this issue as I think the feature I proposed must be supported natively.

If it's not possible, explain why in at least one sentence.

Why?

@karl-pae care to explain?

I can only say is, it's very small feature to be implemented in browser for some 2% - 3% users..

Moreover, there are high priority features/bugs to be focused upon.. 😬

You can either search for such extensions or may be build your own. It's pretty easy, if you know js. 😉
