extensions/amp-accordion/1.0/README.mdreferences the deprecatedsource.unsplash.com/randomendpoint, which Unsplash retired in mid-2024 and which now returns HTTP 503 instead of an image.Why this is needed
source.unsplash.com/random(and the relatedsource.unsplash.com/featured) was deprecated by Unsplash in mid-2024 and the endpoint now returns HTTP 503 instead of an image. Browsers render a broken-image icon in place of the intended visual.Verify in any shell:
What this PR changes
Updates the amp-accordion 1.0 README example's image URL so the Section 3 accordion example renders a real image (not a 503 broken-image icon) for anyone copy-pasting the example into their AMP project.
Replacement details
picsum.photos accepts the same
/<W>/<H>path shape and requires no API key / auth. Dimensions (320×256) preserved verbatim. This is a docs-only change — no extension behaviour is affected.Background
I'm tracking the deprecated
source.unsplash.com/randomendpoint across public repos as part of tteg, a tiny CLI/HTTP API I built so projects can drop in real Unsplash photos without registering an Unsplash app or managing API keys. tteg isn't introduced as a dependency by this PR — the diff is dependency-freepicsum.photos. But if you want topic-matched real photos as a follow-up, the no-key HTTP API is athttps://tteg-api-53227342417.asia-south1.run.app/search?q=<query>&n=1(CORS-on, no auth).One extra artifact you may find handy: a public scanner at https://tteg.kushalsm.com/scan?url= that highlights this same broken-URL pattern in any landing page — useful for verifying the fix lands and for finding other places
