View using style other than your default?

SOLVED, with multiple options. THANK YOU!

I have recently started using my phone to access DW more often, and unsurprisingly I am finding that my styles, which I love and prefer to use on my desktop and laptop, do not play nicely with the tiny phone screen real estate.

Is there a way to keep my usual styles, but view pages when I'm on my phone using a different style, such as Mobility, instead?

[Edit to add] I'm specifically hoping to use an actual style rather than "?style=site" or "?style=light". [end edit]

Thanks for any advice you can give!

There may be a more elegant option, and this doesn't persist, but you can append ?style=site or ?style=light to pages to view them in those simpler options. For example, you could bookmark https://montuos.dreamwidth.org/read?style=site to read on your phone.

How well do you do with CSS? Because I might have a solution for you that lets you keep your own style, but it takes some editing.

As for switching to a completely different style on a different device, I don't think that's possible, at least not without manually switching it around every time.
