 The "Card" layout on the home page and in archives views feels dated and
 is hard to read.

 **Reduce the size of the thumbnail**
 The thumbnail is 128x128 and is overwhelming on first glance. Adding to
 the fact that many contain animations. The thumbnail is not the most
 important information on the page. I think display 75x75 is probably a
 better size.

 **Don't stack the excerpt on the right**
 Titles are pretty keyword heavy now and have become an eyesore. We need to
 do something about that with a more strategic approach. However, for now,
 the content doesn't need to be stuffed on the right side. We can put it
 below the thumbnail/image to make the more readable.

 **Use a more modern tile layout**
 The grey tile feels outdated. We recently introduced a card-like layout in
 https://developer.wordpress.org/. Can we just reuse those styles?
