Various fixes and updates
The links to rules should all be good. This includes in news.html, quick-start.html, next/submit.html, 2024/index.html (it had been modified to refer to next/rules.html instead of 2024/rules.html) as well as the guidelines and rules themselves (under next/). Various typo fixes. I'm afraid there are likely others but I must let others deal with that as I am out of time. Removed FAQ about mastodon push notifications. When I added the FAQ about push notifications for mastodon I was incorrect. The web browser interface suggests it but I never got a push notification even before Apple broke them. There seems to be no way at this time to get them. I note that there was a screenshot in the FAQ but this file still is in the repo possibly. I regenerated the html files but it's possible I forgot to do one at the last minute.
