Hi! Not at all related to the content at all, but here's an article about accessibility and link display text that I send to anyone and everyone I see not following the standards: https://usability.yale.edu/web-accessibility/articles/links

tl;dr: don't have display texts like "here" or "this" or "this comment" etc, it's bad for people who use screenreaders, and super easy to fix, but almost no one knows about this issue, which is why I go around spamming people about it.

I also encourage everyone reading this to start spamming this advice to everyone you encounter!

Reasonable advice; I'll see about applying it in the future. Cheers!
