## Changes

- **Highlights:**

  2. **Added new dialog for site updates and announcements. You can temporarily dismiss this for your current session, or disable it until the next update. Check out [Your privacy](/website-info/#your-privacy) to see how this works.**
  3. **The Categories page now shows the number of categories & category pages now display the total number of pages within that category**
  4. **X/Twitter has been removed from the share section**

  - Removed single layout for old list in [What I use](/what-i-use)
  - Added a separate set of Favicons for when the site is being developed locally (actually added in [December Update 2 - v1.50](/changelog/2025/december-27th/))
  - Now using `.Data.Singular` for term taxonomy

  - Card title links are now just anchor tags
  - Converted all shortcodes to use `{{</* */>}}` instead of `{{%/* */%}}`
