Feedback from Xisco:
There is too much space between header and list of changes. It is not intuitive that you have to scroll.
There is not a welcome message, like "You have updated..."
Link to details does not work.
We need a more notorious message to donate.
Show all changelog without "show more".

A new message to donate and contribute added.
The changelog is showed as a whole.

Feedback from team meeting 2025-01-13
- Remove "LibreOffice 24.8.3" and just have "You have updated your LibreOffice installation to version 24.8.3", so that the donate buttons are higher
- "Our community is constantly improving LibreOffice suite" -> "Our community is constantly improving LibreOffice"
- "On this release" -> "In this release"
- "enterity" -> "entirety"
- "2024 The Document Foundation" -> "2025 The Document Foundation"
- We need screenshots of the most visible improvements
- But the page is for LO 24.8.3, so there are only bugfixes rather than new features. If we show screenshots of general new features in LO 24.8 it might be confusing to users
- "detailed release notes" link should point to https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/ReleaseNotes/24.8
