I don't detect any bug, can you tell me a url to try it with?
I tried with multiple websites e.g.
https://github.com/ https://lichess.org/ https://www.pychess.org/ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page https://www.eff.org/ etc..
no problem at all. I remind you that one thing is what the browser says and one thing is what the site wants to do.
For example:
Desktop mode:
try with https://www.whatismybrowser.com/detect/what-is-my-user-agent/
Mine shows
Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/121.0.0.0 Safari/537.36
- for Desktop mode
Mozilla/5.0 (Linux; Android 10; K) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/121.0.0.0 Safari/537.36
- for Mobile
so it works.
🤷🏿 No it doesn't work for me. But no such issues on my phones, tried with both android 8 & 12.
Mine shows Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/121.0.0.0 Safari/537.36 - for Desktop mode Mozilla/5.0 (Linux; Android 10; K) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/121.0.0.0 Safari/537.36 - for Mobile
is correct, and that is what it is intended to do
User agents shows correct (!?) but sites never switch to desktop mode, weird.
one thing is what the browser says and one thing is what the site wants to do.
On tablet I prefer desktop modes but I guess I'll live with this mobile view issue🤷🏿 Though on Mull browser sites works as Desktop view as expected on this Tablet.
I see it's not a bug from your side, thanks for the quick replies.
I advise you to try a rollback to the previous version and see if the behaviour is identical.
As I said I'm experiencing this issue for a while now, so sorry for not reporting back then.
I checked multiple versions back and forth. The v116.0.5845.188 (584518804) version works as expected for me but when updating to v117.0.5938.63 (593806304) this issue reappears. I'm sure something must have been changed from major v117.x.x
I encountered a similar issue, where desktop mode failed to run on a tablet with portrait view.
almost all popular sites crash and broke when requesting desktop mode with portrait view. ½ Google drive display blank page, gmail can't fit displaying desktop mode. github still mobile mode, and many of popular website broke.
all is fine with landscape view.

could you check how chrome behaves?
work without any problem on another chromium browser "samsung, vivaldi, kiwi" all of them can run desktop mode in portrait view.
(edit) edge, chrome, thorium, brave & cromite make broke like this in Chromium 124

Describe the bug
For a couple of versions the desktop mode feature not working on my Tablet at all. It always uses mobile view for all the sites.
Steps to reproduce the bug
[Test1]
The site refresh/reloads but shows in Mobile view
[Test2]
Expected behavior
It should open sites in Desktop view if enabled. Also note that I tested on my another phone (android 8.1.0) it works as expected so I assume this bug is related to Tablet only.
