For the love of all that is holy, can you all please start using `` for navigation and `` for actions, not the other way around?

@Optional Perfect. 10/10 no remarks. Ship it!

@mahryekuh no, it’s about the
inputs (specifically, checking if their button variants work on text browsers) -
@mirabilos Now that sounds interesting.

@mahryekuh You have a typo:
> Be aware that I will use the words "link" and "anchor" to refer to the HTML <a> attribute, ...
"attribute" should be "element".
I'd also suggest hiding the line numbers in code snipets with `aria-hidden`, because they prevent screen readers from conveying indentation properly. A solution that makes the line numbers more accessible would of course be better, but I don't know of one on the web.

@mahryekuh I didn't think devs needed a(nother) blog post to understand this quite simple concept 🫠
But experience confirms many web devs still don't understand, it seems. So, thanks for doing your part 🫡

@mahryekuh Beyond that, despite my thoughts on the other thread, this is a good article on the topic.

@jscholes Thanks. The entire code block is a disaster (visually as well) and I don’t control the output. It’s one of those legacy things I’ve been meaning to fix for longer than I care to admit.
My apologies for the bad experience. Once I have fixed some other style and JS related stuff, this comes next.

@maybeanerd I joked a while ago that with the way people treat link versus button, it feels like subject that requires a PhD.

> One of my top annoyances with websites is when I want to open a link in a new tab and find out that I can't.
This! Exactly this! Even large websites break this pattern regularly. Makes me mad everytime!

@mahryekuh My pet peeve is JavaScript anchor tag links:
<a href="#" onclick="window.location.href = 'https://example.com'">Example</a>
Completely insufferable.
