I was confused by the claim that the Encarta version is quieter until I read that it was because of the inline links. I thought the Wikipedia version was quieter because it doesn't have a distracting background image. I think this confusion is evidence that inline links are actually not distracting. I don't feel I have to make a decision whenever I see one because I know they'll still be there later.

- dahfizz 5y agoMaybe you can add custom CSS rules that make links the same color? I also much prefer the wikipedia interface to the alternatives.
- marginalia_nu 5y agoThis pretty much is a custom CSS. I was also more than a bit annoyed by the huge downloads and 30 second page loads.
