What is visited link enabler?
"Visited Link Enabler" is a Firefox add-on that enhances your web browsing experience by enabling visited link colors on nearly all websites. This feature uses the color settings from your Firefox options, making it easy to identify previously visited links. This tool is particularly beneficial due to the human vision's optimal detection of dark red colors, which are less distracting compared to bright reds or greens. To get the most out of this add-on, it's recommended to manually adjust the color settings for personalized levels of comfort.

it uses the color from the firefox options , look at the pics for explanation

naturally, human vision detects dark red colors the best without it being annoying, bright red is distracting as is bright greens. i use #990000 on pc and on android #992020 (becasue the phone´s screen is darker )
