I absolutely cannot stand how GitHub on a Mobile browser is, no offense to whoever works on that part of GitHub, it's not your fault. But I hate looking up code and finding a GitHub repository on my phone only to get a fragment of what the repository should show me. I want to see the whole damn README every single time.

I wish they would show me the whole README not force me to click on show in desktop mode. The fact they show that button tells me people've complained about the mobile mode enough, cause without that link I would just set my browser to render as a desktop browser.

I love GitHub but mobile UX is one thing that kills me about the web, and it's not GitHub's fault, lots of websites get it wrong, especially ad riddled sites, or sites that redirect you to their mobile page only to not take you to the original content.

At least on Android chrome you can check the desktop version option in the menu and get regular GitHub which is surprisingly very usable!

Yeah you can do that on Firefox as well. Though they have a web URL to view the desktop version, which begs the question: do they get complaints about the mobile version? Why bother...
