Thank you for the comparisons, @Jonathan_Poyer and @JammyDodger. That’s very helpful. Yes, my hyperlinks also show up better here. I’d say it’s about the exact amount of adjustment that I had in mind. Here’s a screenshot showing the hyperlink and screenshot from the OP here.
As far as I know, we’re running the default CSS setup. The admin group are the Python core development team, so they understandably prefer to focus on administering Python rather than administering Discourse.
They had a discussion about code highlighting that Sam Saffron participated in and Charlie ‘Chapoi’ made the adjustment for the next release. We just forgot to include the topic of the hyperlinks. (Interestingly, the code highlighting is now better over there even though the adjusted release is pending. Perhaps someone found the color assignment and tweaked it.)
At first I thought that discuss.python.org is running a different Discourse build. However, we’re currently running 2.9.0.beta4 and the page element viewer shows the same here:
<meta name="generator" content="Discourse 2.9.0.beta4 - https://github.com/discourse/discourse version 8a58ce6578ab697f29cea211049c37c2ab341ba5">
Do you know where the hyperlink color specification is, by chance?
