ux: hover effects on all certificate buttons + polish README

- cert buttons: replace inline mousedown opacity hacks with CSS classes
  (cert-btn-primary, cert-btn-secondary) with proper hover/active states
- about: coffee button matches fixed header button exactly
- README: stronger hook, screenshots moved up, /terms removed from tree,
  Redis note added, section titles more on-brand, Node version noted

 # Commitment Issues
 
-Official death certificates for abandoned GitHub repositories.
+Your abandoned repos deserve a proper funeral.

-## What is Commitment Issues?
-
-Paste a public GitHub repository URL and get a shareable **Certificate of Death**: a tongue-in-cheek summary of how "dead" the repo looks, with a score, cause of death, last words, and exportable graphics for social posts. No account required.
-
-## Features
-
-- **Certificate of Death** - A4-style layout with cause, last words, repo age, and derived stats
-- **Exports** - Multiple aspect ratios (feed, square, story-style) for common social platforms
-- **Mobile share** - Native share uses a tall story-friendly format on small screens to reduce bad crops
-- **Hall of Shame** - Curated leaderboard of famously abandoned repositories
-- **Recently Buried** - Live feed of the latest public burials (repo, cause, score, time)
-
-## How scoring works (high level)
-
-| Step | What happens |
-|------|----------------|
-| Input | You provide a public repo URL |
-| Data | The app reads public metadata from the GitHub API |
-| Score | A death score and narrative (cause, last words) are computed in `src/lib/scoring.ts` |
-| Output | You get an on-screen certificate and optional image exports |
-
-Hall of Shame entries are curated for recognizable repos and fast first paint; Recently Buried reflects real recent usage.

+Add a GitHub token to raise API rate limits (optional but recommended):
