As a Roblox developer, when links are used on the DevForum, it is sometimes hard to make them out due to them relying solely on colour differentiation.
If Roblox is able to address this issue, it would improve my experience using the forum because I wouldn’t have to turn on a screen reader/scan across the page to find links.
Do you happen to have any particular form of colorblindness, or other sight impairment? First time I’ve seen the color of links here be a problem for someone. What theme are you using?
Not sure if it’s colourblindness, but I find it difficult to recognize colours compared to shapes. It’s somewhat amplified when reading large bodies of text, as the colours can blend together making it hard to distinguish what is a link and what isn’t a link. I’m using the Light theme.
Now, I’m not sure if it’s just that the site I’m using might be scuffed or what, but in the worst possible case scenario it still looks very visibly different from the text (red and green blindnesses have no significantly visible effect so I left them out)
I can understand need for accessibility and all that but I personally can’t see any noticable issue here - the link text is a very different shade than the rest of the text, even at worst it’s still not blending in to the background.
I will admit though, I certainly wouldn’t mind (and in some cases even appreciate) a little link icon on top of/next to a link, as stacking links next to eachother makes it impossible to tell where one link ends and another begins - that’s not even a colourblindness issue that’s just poor design
It’s not really color related, making out colors from large blurbs of text is a bit difficult for me and having some shape differentiation would help with that. I can find the links if I look close enough, but it’s hard to tell at a glance where the links are in the text.
