I'd agree with you, but then I realized that I already switch browsers and computers so many times in a given day that I have this problem within a site, never mind spanning two.
So I asked myself: When do I use the visited link colors for? And I think the answer is: only when I press the browser's Back button. I want to see where I left off clicking. If I have to click an extra link and say "Whoops, already saw that", then oh well. As long as I know where to start reading when I return.
- Periodic 17y agoI use four different computers in a day, I'm often taking breaks to read HN or Reddit, visited styling isn't helping me much there. The place I use it most is for Google search results, particularly when I refine my search and I want to know what are the links I visited in my previous search so I can click only on the new ones. It's always a trade-off. I think this is a fairly reasonable one.
