## Review summary

Users generally find Link Extractor useful with a cleaner interface and good functionality, especially on desktop and Android Firefox. However, multiple reviews highlight confusion and inconvenience because extracted links appear only at the bottom of the page rather than opening in a new tab as stated. The add-on lacks features like exporting link text and struggles to extract embedded YouTube video links. Some users also report difficulty locating the add-on's icon. Overall, it works well but could improve on usability and feature set.

### Pros

- Useful and functional for extracting links from web pages.
- Nicer user interface compared to similar add-ons like Link Gopher.
- Works well on Firefox for Android and saves time in finding links.
- Accurately extracts encoded links (e.g., %20 for spaces).

### Cons

- Extracted links do not open automatically in a new tab; instead, links appear at the bottom of the page, which is not clearly stated initially.
- Lack of option to include link text alongside URLs in the output.
- Some users find the icon and UI elements unclear or hard to find.
- Does not extract embedded YouTube video URLs, limiting functionality for some use cases.
