You can now apply the mobile skin to the desktop site [1]. Wahhhh?! To cut a long story short, to help MobileFrontend and VisualEditor integrate nicely with one another, we needed the mobile skin to be registered as a valid skin. We've previously avoided this as we didn't want to surface this in the Special:Preferences (a side effect of doing so). Kaldari however found a way we can supress it there, so thus we went and registered it [1].
I encourage editors to check how their stuff looks in the minerva skin on a small window size. This should make mobile optimisation a lot easier for you! :)

Throw in links to history and talk, and this is my new favourite desktop skin (and also, makes me able to work on mobile devices)

Martijn both of those features are in the beta site and hopefully will surface soon!! You can get a preview of the history page here - https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:History/San_Francisco?mobileaction=b... - let us know what's missing so we can get this up!
