I think people do; it's popular enough that many people implement it, not just Tufte-CSS, it was one of the first things I added to gwern.net once I saw it demoed, I believe Medium also does it, and no one's complained to me that they really like the overlapping obscuration.
- zck 7y agoI really like the overlapping underline. Well, really I like the non-broken underline, which happens to overlap with descenders. If the underline indicating a link breaks, it looks like there are two adjacent links. To check if this is the case, I have to mouseover both the link before and after the break, and compare the URLs with my eyes. I find this a much greater annoyance then I do the overlapping underlining.
- jamiek88 7y ago>If the underline indicating a link breaks, it looks like there are two adjacent links Ah that's what that is. I've seen a few like that and wondered why there were two identical links next to each other not thinking it was underline style. I'll save myself the hover now!
- gwern 7y agoWikipedia also does it, I just noticed.
