The other developer's extension doesn't work on some links but this one does. Thanks.

Using Firefox Android - It does work but it's a bit awkward to use. You have to open the extension, to ap toggle copy mode, go back to your web pages then tap on the link to copy the text, then back to the extension again to disable copy mode. I really wish Firefox would just give us the option when tapping and holding a link that says "select text"

Extension safety

Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Copy Link Text requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk likelihood
Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Browser Add-ons, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.

Copy Link Text is probably trust-worthy. Prefer other publishers if available. Exercise caution when installing this add-on.
