The mobile site is relatively unpopular among editors, i think there would be a riot if they did that.

That said, there is a "desktop" version of the mobile skin, you can get it by appending ?useskin=minerva to a wikipedia url.

I use that trick to still get the vector layout. No version past that is to my personal liking.

If you log in, you can set it in your preferences so its sticky.

wdym?

isn't "new" pc design that's been around for last couple years pretty much mobile one already? (and thus ugly af)

The new one (called vector-2022) is much closer to mobile stylings, but not the same. The mobile skin is called minerva. On top of that the mobile site makes some changes to the content to simplify it, and replaces some elements.
