Is that a bad thing? I personally like links to where I can learn more.
I find the text harder to read, the more significant links and terms or aspects harder to identify, and the consecutive-words-links unable to identify without hovering.
I get the idea, but I think it can be done better, and if it's like this, between less and more, I prefer less - even if that means fewer references.
I don't. Many of the terms are easily searchable, and it's frustrating to click on one of them expecting to see syd-specific documentation about a topic or usecase only to see a generic post about a login shell (one of the links). It's trivial to highlight something and then right click and "Search DuckDuckGo for "highlighted term"" (firefox right click menu) nowadays. A search for "Login Shell Linux" nets that link they put in their documentation as literally the first result.
~~I wish they only actually linked syd's internal documentation, maybe to stuff like the LWN articles explaining some of their design decisions~~
Actually some of the links are easter eggs and they are pretty funny. Those can stay ig.
