Thirded?

Great suggestion! That would be a huge help.

Much better. An underline is also pretty standard for links and helps them stand out even more, but the brighter blue is a big improvement even by itself.

Thanks!

Pug, hold down shift and click the "reload" button in your browser. You have a cached stylesheet - doing this will force a full reload/invalidate the cache.

Links should be blue then.

I think there must be a different stylesheet for the mobile version. On desktop, I'm seeing the new colors. On my phone, like Pug, nothing has changed. Will look into it.

I’ve always had trouble seeing the links, so I try to remember to bold and/or underline them when they’re not on their own separate line.
I appreciate the effort to make them stand out better by default.

They look kind of different on my ipad when I request the desktop version, but the change seems to be in size more than color. Maybe i need to clear my cache. Since this is the pp forum, my deep cache.

I've added underlining to links in posts.

Like Pug, though, I seem to be unable to see the change on my phone. I verified there isn't a separate stylesheet so it must be a caching issue. I removed my entire cache in Chrome on my phone and it didn't make a difference. Maybe waiting will do it...

I finally figured out how to fix it on my iPhone.

Settings > Safari > Advanced > Website Data

Find gyroscopicinvesting on the list, swipe left, and delete. That should do the trick.
