Website Address
Not related to a specific page.
Bug Description
An a element is only a link if it has an href Attribute. Browsers will not color them if they are not links.
Chrome uses a:-webkit-any-link to select them by default.
<style class="darkreader darkreader--user-agent"> has a plain a selector instead of a:any-link which causes non-links to turn blue.
Steps To Reproduce
Create a new file or go to a site like Codepen and add
<a href="/">A valid link</a><br/>
<a>Not a valid link</a>
Expected Behavior
The element that is not a link is not colored.
Actual Behavior
The element that is not a link is colored.

That’s a option, for now just holding off to change that bit of code again and gather some real world tests.
Hi @brunnerh!
Thanks for your bug report, this is indeed a bug and should be solved now. Quite funny that this seems to never really broken any real-world cases.
