I've got the access to moderator tools privilege here on Meta SE, and the review queues dropdown ordinarily features the "tools" and "all queues" links that allow quickly hopping to their related pages. This is how they look on the desktop web page:

On the responsive site, I'm no longer seeing those two links available to me:

I pretty frequently would open up the tools link to have a look at recently closed/deleted questions throughout the day, and was quite surprised when that flow was interrupted with those links suddenly disappearing from this view.

Additionally, the Achievements dropdown typically features "privileges" and "badges" links. Here's how that looks on the desktop site:

However these are also missing in the responsive mobile design. Here's how that looks:

It's now much more difficult to hop to the privileges list, and it's actually impossible to hop to /tools from the responsive design without digging all the way to the help center and using some links in the description for it.

The same goes for the inbox's "all items" link. On desktop:

And on the responsive mobile view:

Could we re-add those links?

Sorry for removing those links! It was a bug introduced in our march toward deprecating mobile views. We have a fix on the way!
