I have an iPad Air tucked into a leather couch pocket for just this reason. I pull it out and jump on Lemmy when we pause for my partner to go to the bathroom or make a snack. Sometimes, you just appreciate a bigger screen.

Off topic but I have a question…
my couch so I can quickly look stuff up
Why doesn’t a phone suffice?

Yeah fair, that’s just a different reason to solely to look something up, which is what I thought OP meant.

Funny you ask, I was trying to book an appointment for a local company on my phone the other day and it wasn’t rendering properly. It’s crazy to me in this day and age but it seems that there are still companies that have non mobile friendly websites. It’s happened a lot lately too, tried to order some food and the site used it’s own process for delivery, and didn’t render worth a crap on mobile. Basically a ton of little reasons why I want something like I describe.

Gotcha.
Personally I opt for ‘show in desktop mode’ in my browser when that happens. Hasn’t failed me yet but I imagine it will with some weird site I visit one day.
