MODERATORS
Careful doing just this. They actually track http request headers and look for desktop signifiers, so your best bet is to use a VPN in tandem with whatever setup you go with. (Tried doing this a few years back without the vpn, they sent me some very upset texts.)
I use desktop mode all the time on my phone's browser because mobile sites are too limited. How can they just assume nobody is doing this? Sometimes I even use desktop version of Firefox in Termux because mobile browsers tend to crash large uploads with locked screen.
But I guess I shouldn't be surprised if they already do this hotspot usage limiting. Greed has no limits.
