Requesting desktop site on mobile now just says "Forbidden" instead of bringing up the web page

Hello AJ, I am sorry to hear that you have encountered this issue. Please note that Roll20 is not supported on smartphones at this time. As such, you may have unexpected results while using the Roll20 site on smartphones. 
Well, I don't have a PC, so I guess I'll be taking my friends and games to another service.

There are several reports of this. Just to be clear, it is the website you are trying to access, not the tabletop? The website should be available normally.
Correct, the whole website becomes unavailable if I try to access the desktop site.  Just has the word "Forbidden" in the top left.
Hi there,  We are aware of the "forbidden" issue some users are experiencing when visiting the website and we are currently investigating. There seems to be a work-around in clearing out your cookies, however.
That work-around seems to have worked.  Thank you.
And thank you for helping alert us to the issue! Wishing the best for you and your players. :)
I just had this same issue with my ghost account that I use for looking at my game as a player, using Safari.  I found this thread using my pro login on Chrome, and clearing the cookies in Safari fixed the problem.  Is this a browser specific problem, or was I just lucky that one browser worked when the other didn't?  I know Safari is not specifically supported, but it is usually fine for checking lines of sight and similar technicalities.
I get forbidden on what i believe is a successful login at times, but only from the login widget in the top right. I find that clicking "Play Now" so I can log in right on the page proper avoids this issue. That may or may not help others with this and related issues.

You've found a work-around that worked for me. xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxox
