Better example of bad custom colors 
Add a better screenshot showcasing bad custom colors. Also give it a
figcaption.

The figcaption meant that I had to revise a statement later down when I
said I don't use figcaptions for images.

Add recommendations for narrow viewports 
These recommendations also included stuff for <figure> elements; in the
spirit of dogfooding, I used some <figure> elements where appropriate
elsewhere in the page.

Add nonbreaking spaces before version numbers 
"WCAG 2.2" shouldn't be broken up; a new line shouldn't start with
"2.2". "WCAG 2.2" should be treated as one word.

Use new "indieweb-person" shortcode 
This should reduce a lot of repetition. Supports first/last names,
nicknames, generic names that don't conform to first/last norms, and
has basic support for affiliated organizations.

CLS: Declare original image dimensions in HTML 
Reduce Cumulative Layout Shift (CLS) by declaring original image
dimensions in HTML before re-scaling with CSS. This tells browsers the
image's aspect ratio before the image and the stylesheet load, allowing
browsers to block out space accordingly to avoid making elements "jump"
during loading.
