On one site that uses the dropdown menu, while I prefer the sidebar, I use the query parameter that you can use for testing. It works quite well because I usually don’t close the tab with that forum. I also added a link with that parameter into the navigation menu. So, if the forum “forgets” that I want to test the sidebar, I simply open the link from the menu in a new tab, and then I have the sidebar again.
