3. Dropdown sub-menus for timeline sections
This is mainly for mobiles/tablets, but I think the section navigations at the top of the page could be improved with dropdowns, instead of the current (static) boxes and links. It would make the timeline pages a bit slicker, less cluttered, and requiring less scrolling.

Working on this today/tomorrow. ChatGPT is helping me with the coding!

All done.

That's for mobiles, but I made a slight improvement for desktop, too. You'll see little white "previous" and "next" chevrons, along the dark blue menus – see e.g. 2030. The 21st century years all have this now. I'll do 22nd century/far future and beyond at some point, when I get time.

I tried changing the word filter so "X" links are converted to Twitter, but it doesn't seem to auto-embed the tweet.

Here's a test...

And here's another, this time actually typing the word.

So it seems you have to manually type it to embed.
