So I assume the default behavior, regardless if loading via mobile or desktop frontend is to load the desktop frontend on commons? That would make sense as I always delete all cookies when I exit the browser (usually using dolphin browser with the long-press shutdown feature). <rant>Also, trying to find that tiny "mobile view" link on a mobile phone is like trying to read the serial number on the needle in the haystack!</rant> Anyway, wouldn't you agree on the logic that when passing from one site to an other, the same type of frontend is active, if no specific setting is set in a cookie, instead of defaulting to a fixed default, that doesn't take into account where you came from? I'm reopening the bug as I assume it's currently true that if you are on a mobile hone using desktop view and using a interwiki link, you will end up auto-redirected to a mobile view on that sister site if thy have redirect activated and no cookie is set for that site. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
