Full entry on home page of Magazine template?

This might be quite basic but I can’t work it out. Please can you advise me how I can show the full entry of blog posts on the home page using the Magazine template, instead of the summaries? Ideally the pagination would still work the same using the 'posts per page' setting – I just want to display the full entries for the posts. I know I could use the blog template for this but I prefer the layout of the Magazine template apart from this one thing.

Canonical URLs?

Google Search Console mentioned a lot of pages without user-selected canonical, and after researching a little, I learned that it's better for static sites to mention each original URL (entry or page) as a link rel canonical in the head. I think that's what is better, not sure. I managed to do this perfectly for entries, but using {{{absoluteURL}}} in the head, between {{#entry}} and {{/entry}}. But this doesn't work for the site homepage, or pages like archives, etc. Is there a Reference item that would work for every page of the site, and not just entries?

Adding Arabic support?

Hanging indents?

Is there an easy way to create hanging indents (i.e., any text that runs past the margin would wrap with a four-space indentation)? I can do this with single lines using HTML paragraph rules, but this creates some spacing problems. This may be a bit of a niche concern, but would help me format poetry to work better on phone screens.

Google Search Console cannot fetch my Sitemap?

I checked mysitename.xyz/sitemap.xml is indeed an xml file. I gave that to GSC, but even after a few days, it says Status: Couldn't fetch. What could be the reason? Maybe the site is too small? or maybe it's got to do with the notice that I see when I open the sitemap in my browser: This XML file does not appear to have any style information associated with it. The document tree is shown below.

Linking a citation to the bibliography

How difficult would it be to have this feature? When I enter [@citation] in my post, the resultant text is a link within the page that sends you down to the bibliography.

Center display equations rather than left-aligned?
