Select Link Text

Select link's text just like regular text

Install Compare

Select Link Text is a Chrome extension designed to allow users to select and copy link text just as they would regular text, enhancing copying convenience especially on webpages with tricky link text elements. It is a fork of the popular "Select like a Boss" extension by Dzianis Rusak, focusing on smooth user experience.

Please note, this extension does not function on certain pages such as addons.mozilla.org and internal browser pages ("about:" pages) due to limitations in the WebExtensions API. Overall, it offers a simple but valuable improvement to text selection interactions on the web.
