I think links are a pretty important aspect of many answers. However, while reading an answer (and I was rereading it for about 30 minutes), I never noticed that there was actually a link in the answer as the color is very similar to the surrounding text's color. Ofcourse, this is completely subjective, other's might be seeing it just fine, but I think overall, visually, links can be improved. (I'm not color blind or anything).

Here's a picture. (Also I must admit, after I saw it I can't unsee the dark blue, but still on my screen it's pretty hard to see). enter image description here

    Agreed. Underlining, in particular, is an important accessibility feature for the colour blind and visually impaired. Commented Nov 8, 2016 at 2:15
