I’m wondering the same thing. I’m new here and I can’t get it to switch back to mobile.

Mobile view still sucks BUT now you’re being “encouraged” or voluntold to use the mobile site because otherwise you’ll be taken to the username sign-in EVERY single time! you click on a new thread, reply or comment.

I created this thread 6 years ago when APC began to slowly dismantle, or at the very least to impede, the desktop view of Airline Pilot Forums.
The latest changes have made things even worst. In the past when using the desktop view (my preference) I was always able to browse different threads without having to sign in. If I wanted to post I’d sign in, otherwise I was able to browse the different threads without having to sign in. It made the process much faster.
Now however, each time you refresh the page the curser takes you to the username sign-in. Sign in or else! Every single time.
This has pretty much destroyed the desktop view. Despite the promises given in the past that desktop view would NOT go away.. They’re correct per se, it didn’t go away. They just made sure using it as painful as possible.

It keeps me logged in for 6 months, and admins and mods have an additional MFA layer.Try clearing all cookies which contain airlinepilotforums or airlinepilotcentral
Also if you have multiple user accounts (you're not supposed to) that will create login problems too.

It does not do that for me

Well, you said it keeps you logged in for 6 months. That was my point, in the past if wanted to browse only I didn’t have to log in at all, just browse new threads. Now I must log in just to view them. Otherwise each click takes me to the log in.
