Might need to change the default theme to something other than the "Dark" theme as Google is complaining that the unmodified Dark Theme (OOTB) as our default theme:
OK, I fixed this, and will revert back to the "Dark' theme as default using this CSS.
Note
For the original theme (Dark without the extra margin), select "Dark" in the hamburger menu. I moved the GSE friendly "default" theme to "Dark for GSE".
which effects the topic user avatars on the home page (primarily), adding 2px of margin so Google will not flag the page as "not friendly for mobile".
The core problem seems to be a bug or issue with how Discourse detects the Google mobile search engine crawlers (for indexing) because when I look at GSE, the Google view of the mobile page is actually the desktop view (not the mobile view). However, I don't want to breach this subject with the meta team or report a bug, so I simply added the minimal number of pixels Google needed to suppress the error, which was 2px;
This additional 2px of margin for these avatars causes a small spacing issue with how these avatars are presented (more than four avatars, will push the fifth to a newline in the GSE version); and so I created two themes, one for Google (the default, GSE theme) and one for users (without the 2px).
I think for most registered users, the "Dark" theme is best. "Dark for GSE" is only a workaround for the "not friendly for mobile" issue Google complains about (a default for unregistered users).
