I find inline links incredibly disruptive to my reading flow, the change in color makes my eyes start jumping around in the text. Wikipedia especially is absolutely hopeless, to the point where I've built a mirror that removes all inline links. (A page looks like this: https://encyclopedia.marginalia.nu/wiki/Hyperlink )

Just make it the same color. For me links on HN are underlined but the same color as regular text or a slightly dimmer gray if already visited. It's one of the first things I do when I install a new browser and if it's hard that browser doesn't stay installed long.

Just found this FF add-on [1], yesterday, which removes all links from a page. Works reasonably well. Can also invoke reader view after removing links and get the benefits there.

Wouldn't a user script work just as well for this purpose? `document.querySelectorAll('a').for each(a=>{a.outerHTML=a.innerHTML});`

Sure, that works too. You still get the megabyte pageloads though, and you need to carry the script with you every where you go.

Looks good. A bit out of date though
