If lots of people like purple for URLs, myself included, perhaps use cyan for the italic text, instead.

simurai commented 7 years ago

What if lots of people like purple for italic? :smiling_imp:

The reason why I thought cyan would be a good replacement: Cyan is closer to green (used for the link text) making the text and URL more seen as a group and that they belong together.

Cyan doesn't "pop/stand out" as much, but I think most people just copy&paste the URL and don't hand edit it that often.

Does that make any sense?

Sounds good to me.
