WORK FOR 50++ DOWNLOAD LINK ON PART, THANKS!!

I tried it in a window with many tabs open, on this first tab I had open which happened to be this page https://www.pocketgamer.biz/saudi-arabia-set-to-host-the-first-olympic-esports-in-2025/ I dragged for the 5 news articles on the right hand side. This extension opened them all, but the 1st and 5th link were at the front of the tab list, and the other 3 were in a new Tab Group at the end of the list. So they opened, but in random places. Grouping them all would be great! So I'm feeding this back

Doesn't work with relative links in web pages, it just tries to open whatever is in the source code of the page and doesn't convert them into absolute links
