Comment (by Travel_girl):

 Hey, just found the ticket by a happy accident (didn't get a
 notification).

 I agree, that the link hover styles could be more consistent. We made
 different styles for the links, to make it a11y and still as less noisy as
 possible.

 The sidebar Links don't have and underline, because their stand alone and
 can still be seen as links. So we made the decision to not underline them,
 and give them an underline by hovering.

 The links in the content has to be underlined, otherwise there are not
 visible for people for colorblindness. But I agree, that the color change
 to orange is not optimal, because the color difference is not really
 visible in black and white.

 The hover animation für the menu is an indicator for the tabs. But from my
 point of view, we could style them the same way like the sidebar-links.

 From the Suggestion from @mapk I would prefer the first version (bold
 underline).
 Or as a third suggestion: We could make the whole link (including text)
 bold as an indicator for the hover.
