This version uses a function to look for the parent element that is an HTML paragraph developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/W... and outputs the links as one per paragraph. Code that can be copy pasted is in the alt text of image - see also start of thread here re: console bsky.app/profile/rain...

$var finaloutput =""; var links = document.body.getElementsByTagName("a"); function getparagraph(l) { if (l.parentElement.tagName == "P") {return l.parentElement.innerText;} else{ return l.parentElement.parentElement.innerText;}} for (l of links) { fullline = getparagraph(l); finaloutput = finaloutput + `<p><a href="${l.href}">${l.innerText}</a>`+ fullline.substring(fullline.indexOf(l.innerText)+l.innerText.length) + "</p>\n";} console.log(finaloutput); COPY all lines in alt text before the capitalised word copy // Like code explained in previous posts but uses a function getparagraph to retrieve text of paragraph link is in - assumes each link on one line as separate paragraph and puts them out as links in paragraphs too // this code in image uses various bits of Javascript to take the links on a page and spit them out in the console - pared down to the essentials and ready to cut and paste as HTML code in a new webpage // var means variable //finaloutput is a string containing what you can cut and paste at the end // document.body.getElementsByTagName("a") gets all links on page - puts them in links variable // for (l of links) loops through the links // and while looping through appends to output 2 things // a link of the form <a href="URL">text seen on page as link</a> // plus any text just after the link - retrieved here as a substring of the innerText of the parentElement of the link's parentElement (so links grandparent)$

4) adds to the finaloutput a line that has an anchor element (using each link's href property - website address - and innerText property, the visible text) and then appends any text that should be after it on same line. Builds it up in a template literal developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/W...

Template literals (Template strings) - JavaScript | MDN

Template literals are literals delimited with backtick (`) characters, allowing for multi-line strings, string interpolation with embedded expressions, and special constructs called tagged templates.

Thinking about how to export links without the cruft:
if happy using a browser console (e.g. developer.chrome.com/docs/devtool... or firefox-source-docs.mozilla.org/devtools-user/ ) then the code before the capitalised COPY in alt text might do it.
Console will warn re: pasting so will explain code.

$var finaloutput =""; var links = document.body.getElementsByTagName("a"); for (l of links) { finaloutput = finaloutput + `<a href="${l.href}">${l.innerText}</a>`+ l.parentElement.parentElement.innerText.substring(l.parentElement.parentElement.innerText.indexOf(l.innerText)+l.innerText.length) + "\n";} console.log(finaloutput); COPY all before the capitalised copy // this code in image uses various bits of Javascript to take the links on the page and spit them out in the console - pared down to the essentials and ready to cut and paste as code // var means variable //finaloutput is a string containing what you can cut and paste at the end // document.body.getElementsByTagName("a") gets all links on page - puts them in links variable // for (l of links) loops through the links // and while looping through appends to output 2 things // a link of the form <a href="URL">text seen on page as link</a> // plus any text just after the link - retrieved here as a substring of the innerText of the parentElement of the link's parentElement (so links grandparent)$
