fix(landing): correct comparison-table claims, mobile image, media-query bug

Browse source 
- Comparison table (landing + the 3 compare pages): correct cells against each
  vendor's current pricing/docs (verified June 2026). Delete the inaccurate
  Platforms, Content Designer, and Hardware Lock-in rows; relabel "Remote
  Control" to "Live screen view + remote key presses" with an Android/permission
  caveat; fix Video Wall, Kiosk, Free tier, White Label and remote cells for
  Yodeck, ScreenCloud and OptiSigns. Add an "as of June 2026 / report errors"
  footnote with a GitHub issues link.
- Compare pages: drop the false "supports more platforms than X" claims; correct
  Yodeck (Windows/ChromeOS, web player, kiosk), OptiSigns (free tier, video wall,
  white label, remote); add the same footnote + caveat.
- Mobile fix: .screenshot img now has max-width:100% / height:auto / display:block
  so the dashboard preview no longer distorts on phones (no desktop effect).
- CSS bug: restore the dropped @media (max-width:768px) wrapper (braces were
  102 { vs 103 }) so the mobile overrides stop leaking to desktop.

<h2>The short answer</h2>
<p><strong>OptiSigns</strong> is a well-marketed cloud signage product with a deep template library and good documentation. It targets non-technical buyers and works particularly well for restaurants and retail menus.</p>
<p><strong>ScreenTinker</strong> is open source (MIT licensed), self-hostable, supports more platforms natively, and is meaningfully cheaper at higher screen counts. It is a better fit if you have any technical capacity, you care about data sovereignty, or you operate at a scale where per-screen pricing hurts.</p>

<h2>The short answer</h2>
<p><strong>Yodeck</strong> is a polished, easy-to-use cloud digital signage product with a Pi player included on paid plans. It is a great fit if you want to plug in and go and you are happy with cloud-only hosting and per-screen pricing.</p>
<p><strong>ScreenTinker</strong> is open source (MIT licensed), self-hostable, and supports more platforms out of the box. It is a better fit if you want to keep your data on your own infrastructure, avoid per-screen lock-in, or you have more than a handful of screens and want to control the cost curve.</p>
