Use soft hyphens more judiciously
- Recommend others be careful with their use of soft hyphens, and test
  with NVDA. Poorly-placed hyphens can make words sound unclear.
- Dial back my use of soft hyphens to only what's necessary.

Re-introduce RSS discoverability alongside Atom
The RSS feeds use escaped HTML instead of XHTML, which improves
compatibility with certain feed readers (e.g. Microsoft Outlook).

Mention that Outlook uses its own weird engine for feed contents in my
web best practices article.

Remove microdata from feeds
It's useless and invalid in those contexts, and removing it
significantly trims the file sizes.

Edit a post featuring a microdata code snippet to avoid conflicts.

Switch to XHTML5 markup
The site now has polygot markup and can handle both XHTML5 and HTML5
parsing rules. My staging site will be XHTML but my main site will be
HTML5, just in case of parse errors.

If other tools (e.g. LightHouse) end up supporting XHTML5, I'll consider
switching the content-type to XHTML.

New section "visible interactive semantics"
Move "in defense of link underlines" to subsection of new "visible
interactive semantics" section. Add info on distinguishing between
buttons and links, and making non-interactive space look visually
distinct from interactive space.

Clarify horizontal line test, RT-tracking overkill
- round-trip-tracking is overkill for most use-cases
- clarify that horizontal line test is best used for landmarks and for
  multiple different grouping elements, rather than just any grouping
  element.

Support page-specific open graph images
Allow specifying open graph images for individual pages. Change default
site-wide open graph image alt-text to an empty string since the default
image only has visual value, and is better off hidden from assistive
technologies.

Set an open graph image for two articles.

  with payload size.
- Remove/replace some inline formatting.

- Replace "click" with "navigate" since not everyone navigates by click.

More CSS containment, adopt shortcodes
- Adopt more shortcodes in older posts.
- Contain figures, excluding images. Slightly decreases paint times.
- Fix spacing issues for nested articles.
- Always enable vertical scrollbar, since pretty much all pages are
  taller than the viewport. Eliminates a layout shift.
- Moar microdata
- Set fixed updated dates for some posts so they don't get new
  date-updated values until I actually change the content significantly

  screen at all times, 48x48 px.

Reduce accidental skips, add transcript, microdata
When a figure is in the middle of a section, mobile screen reader users
might not switch away from heading-based navigation. Instead, they might
just jump to the next heading.

Re-organize the page to put some skippable content closer to the end of
sections, and add a section describing the need for this.

Also add a transcript to the screenshot of BMFW, and adopt the new
quotecaption shortcode, and fix some structured data by using some
shortcodes properly.
