Hi everyone,
There is a new view mode you can check out under settings, 
designed to be more usable for narrow screens (such as smart 
phones).
This setting is stored client side as a cookie which means you 
can use it on your phone without affecting your desktop settings.

Please report any issues you might be having.

Feedback welcome!

Is it possible to have it stored as local storage instead of a cookie?

I'm not mainly a web dev but what I could gather from this page https://stackoverflow.com/questions/3220660/local-storage-vs-cookies it is accessible from client side JavaScript and not transmitted to the server by default, which is necessary for server to respond with the correct view mode HTML.

Oh, I thought it was just a value that the page reacted upon. The reason why I think local storage would have been better is because some people might have cookies disabled etc. but local storage is generally always enabled.

Cookies also expires and you may override the expiration put and it might be controlled by organizations etc. Local storage does not expire.
