maybe you could style visited links in another way, e.g. adding an icon to them using ::before or ::after?

I've noticed this as a problem in general. It's nice that links change color once visited, but then they all end up the same color which kind of defeats the purpose. (And they remain that way until the user clears his history or whatever...)

Here's an idea: maybe use a cookie or localStorage to keep track of when each link has been clicked on, and then use JavaScript to gradually restore them to the brighter color. (So if it was recently clicked on it becomes dull, but with each passing day it becomes a little brighter, until it eventually becomes fully bright again; but each time it gets clicked on it goes back to dull)

I do want visited links to look unvisited when there's new content in it. I thought of using a css class for this but it didn't suit all cases on the viewer's end. the localstorage/cookies is a good idea. a link will be permanently visited-colored unless I updated it recently, and it reverts back to visited-colored when the viewers checks out the new content

it's permanent but customized to the viewer like the pattern themes on my homepage. though I think I'll also make this entire feature optional and toggleable
