Comment:

 Yes @justinahinon, you can't use a PHP function inside a gettext function.

 `__( html_entity_decode( 'Your site’s most recent Posts.' ) )`

 Should be replaced with something like:

 `html_entity_decode( __( 'Your site’s most recent Posts.' ) )`


 Moving for 5.8 consideration since it's related to trunk.
