3 Reviews For This Extension
This does exactly what I needed it to do, I force some mobile website on desktop
Only feature I was looking for in this add-on was to overwrite the body response. However, and even though it's only supported in Firefox, that doesn't even work there with the current version of it (102.14). Submitted a support request in their add-on's github and got no reply after a full month of a wait. May work well for other features the add-on offers, but then there are plenty others which I'm sure would be easier to use as the UI of this add-on is not the most intuitive anyway.
Good extension, unfortunately not as good as the firefox version due to Chrome's limitations. For example, you cannot edit the cache control header prior to entering chrome's processing pipeline to fix websites setting bad cache parameters that force full page reloads unnecessarily. But this works on firefox.
