Copy Link Text Firefox Add-on: Duplicate Text from Links
'Copy Link Text' is a vital Firefox add-on that simplifies the act of copying text from a link. Just by right-clicking on the link you wish to copy, a 'Copy Link Text' option will appear. Choosing that option will instantly copy the link text to your clipboard. This add-on also allows for copying the link title when holding down the 'Shift' key. For copying image text, there's a related add-on to this. The utility of this add-on can be extended using similar add-ons like 'Link Text and Location Copier', 'Copy as Markdown', and 'Format Link'.

User reviews
This extensions and all other similar extensions break once in while, requiring you to reinstall them. Today, for example, this extension stopped working. I reinstalled it and it is working. Two similar extensions (both called "Copy Link Text") also stopped working. I couldn't get them to work again. I'm not confident that this phenomenon is the extension's fault entirely.
