So I created a new CSS (stylesheet) for OpenBSD.org

It can be viewed at:

https://www.openbsd.design/cvs/www/index.html

I think it has been noted before but I'll echo that index.html just feels plain wrong.

The dark mode link colors are way too dark, especially in the case of
previously visited links. They are nearly unreadable. I have not looked at light mode -- I don't use it.

I don't know if it is font sizes or paddings but the index.html sidebar
links feel cramped. One would imagine having a hard time tapping on them on mobile if one were inclined to such a thing. In fact I that comparing the versions side by side, all the font sizes are too small.

I don't think removing the text-decoration: underline from links has served a purpose. If anything it makes it less usable. There are these random cases where you have blue mono-spaced fonts for some reason and it's not immediatly obvious to me if the color is supposed to indicate a clickable link or if the color + font change is supposed to indicate something else.

Removing the table borders (eg on the download page) makes the page seem muddier -- the eye wanders and it's harder to tell how the information is related than when there were borders.
