	Ask HN - Text-decoration
	1 points by OncomingStorm 5586 days ago
	Currently reviewing an E-Commerce site for a possible job. The thing is I can't decide whether to recommend for or against underlined links. Yes they are ugly, but they make it easier to the non-webinclined to see. Just looking for some more opinion on this. Give me your .02 HN.

My 2p: leave text-decoration at its default value.

Advanced users who dislike underlined links can and do configure their browser to turn off underlining of links.

The non-webinclined don't know how to change this setting --- may not even know it's possible --- so they will see links underlined.
