- fphhotchips 7y agoI'm in Firefox right now, and it took me four looks to notice that. The contrast could definitely be higher.
- Symbiote 7y agoI noticed it a while ago, but I think underline or maybe a different colour (blue?) would be much better. (Are there any scripts that don't work at all with an underline? Bold not working for Chinese is a reason a bold domain isn't really an option.)
- stickfigure 7y agoNo sarcasm. Chrome does not display any significant difference... or if it does, it's too subtle for my 20-40 vision. Firefox is noticeable, now that you mention it. I never noticed before. A for effort, C- for execution? Given the security implications, how about bold and blue? Maybe even a bigger font size? It should stand out, no?
- JoshuaDavid 7y agoPerhaps even a color chosen based on a hash of the domain name, so a visually similar domain name (e.g. goog1e.com) shows in a different color than the user is used to.
