Correct Viewport `initial-scale` for Proper Mobile Display

Mobile Analyzer

What is this warning?

The `initial-scale` setting in your viewport tag is not set to `1.0`. This can cause your page to load either zoomed in or zoomed out by default on mobile devices, forcing users to manually adjust the zoom to see your content properly. This creates a poor user experience right from the start.
