Links that tell you to “click here” have been always been annoying, but they were at least understandable back in the mid 90s when the internet was new to most people.
It’s now almost 2025: people know what a link is and what to do with it. You don’t have to boss me around or point out the obvious.
Every time I see “click here” on a website or in an email, it tells me that the person who made it had no business doing so.
I prefer the descriptive style such as Totally Not Never Going to Give You Up since it provides more context and is less bossy.
