Autolinks : distracting, really not doing anything useful.

Any problems with the site? How can we improve KVR?

What are Autolinks?
Never noticed something that way...

Post

They are links inserted into posts automatically to "help" you find relevant products basically. Trouble is they're better at finding irrelevant products. They are only visible on desktop systems (finally) after many complaints from mobile users. They made scrolling almost impossible.

Thanks. I'm surfing only on my iPad. Therefore never stumbled over them.

I'll add my vote to please either disable them or provide a way to turn them off.

a "TS cable" mentioned in a post linking to IrcamLAB TS2 is *ridiculous*
Again, please do something about it!

Just as ridiculous...

A poster specifically posts about Sonarworks Reference.

Misspells Sonarworks slightly, so that word -isnt- autolinked.
But the word Reference does get autolinked... to a completely different product called Reference by a company called MasteringTheMix.

Yay!
my other modular synth is a bugbrand

Yeah, it's the most stupid and senseless thing ever invented.
It does exactly the opposite of what was intended.
AI as in Artificial Idiocy.
I have the deepest respect for everybody involved with running KVR and really am thankful for what you do,
but this is maddness.

Cheers,

The opposite of the intended happens with me. I avoid the links like hell, better don’t touch them.
