foldable phones ignoring device resolution making text too small when folded.

I own a Samsung Fold 5 phone. I have set the outer display used when the phone is folded to 300dp. The inner unfolded width is set to 601dp.

Up until very recently, when I folded or unfolded my phone, websites would resize. Often switching between layouts made for phones and layouts made for tablets or desktops. This still happens in Chrome. But no longer does in Firefox. Instead the site has the same resolution in both modes, making the text too small to read when folded. This effectively makes Firefox unusable unless I unfold my phone. Please make Firefox respect the resolution I have set for each mode again so I can view websites at a width of 300px in folded mode like I used to.

Note I have the slider for "desktop site" turned off. When I try to turn it on, nothing happens. The slider doesn't activate and the resolution does not change. (But the page does reload.) This used to give me the option of 3 different resolutions for my screen, (300 folded, 601 unfolded, and something like 1024 in desktop mode.) I'm not sure if desktop mode is permanently turned on now, or if the phone is set to permanently use 601 width, but it is definitely not using the 300 width I used to get when folded. The desktop mode slider is to the left and will not change.

I opened site settings and turned off always request desktop site and nohing changed. I am still unable to get the 300 width site I need to be able to use Firefox on a folded phone.

The "always request desktop site" setting seems to be the culprit. Changing it does not effect the current tab, but does fix the problem for future tabs.

There are 4 related bugs here to fix: 1. When "always request desktop site" is turned on; the "request desktop site" menu option should show as turned on to indicate you are using that mode. Currently it shows as turned off. 2. When "always request desktop site" is turned on, and the user clicks on the "show desktop site" menu option, nothing happens. Either this should temporarily override the always option, or it should take the user to the always option so they know how to change it. It doing nothing is a bad user experience. 3. When the "always request desktop site" setting is changed, existing tabs should respect it. Currently only new tabs do. 4. When a foldable device is folded it should not default to "always request desktop site". The patch notes say this default was changed only on larger devices, but a foldable phone is not a large device when folded. (It is when unfolded.)
