Tested, thanks! no nuclear implosions and I like it. I also think that "accadf" is more readable than before :^) please wait some days before landing to eventually attract additional testers.

@deric: Hi, would you like to arc land your patch, or do you need any help? Thanks in advance!

@aklapper Yeah, that would be great. Sorry, I don't have a working dev instance right now.

Hello! Are you sure changing the links color is a good idea? Perhaps we should just make the background darker?

Hello! Are you sure changing the links color is a good idea? Perhaps we should just make the background darker?

I actually think a darker background and lighter link color would be good. Maybe not quite as light as #accadf, perhaps #46B2FF or so
