Alright... I know there has to be a limit for link texts. I get it.
That doesn't mean I have to like or even accept it.

I've always wondered why they don't include a longer version of the title in the link titles ("<a href='URI'>Too long t...</a>" --> "<a href='URI' title='Too long title'>Too long t...</a>").

They could leave the actual link text short, and provide at least a title that's a bit longer for mouse overs.

I wrote a script that does the leg work for you there.

This script goes through all the links, looking for new links ending with "...".

It gets the target page for each match in the background and takes the title and puts it in the search result link, either replacing the original content, or as a Link Title.
Settings can be changed at the top of the script.
If it's set to replace the original like text, you can still find it in the link title by hovering over it.

Limitations:

  • When you request a .pdf file, it will open as a download. Because of that, I'm excluding URIs that end in ".pdf" from being followed up.
  • I couldn't find an effective way of really only getting the page <head>, I'm getting the whole document. This means there is a bit of traffic happening in the background while the pages are being checked. You might not want to use it if you are super low on data volume.

Update 2.0.1 2023-12-27

  • Updated integration of GM_Config (https://github.com/sizzlemctwizzle/GM_config) after breaking change months ago. So sorry, I was unaware of that change 😬
  • Added "Reddit - Dive into anything" to the default ignore list :(
    That stings, sad to see Reddit go.

Update 2.0.0 2022-08-18

  • Using GM_Config for settings now (https://github.com/sizzlemctwizzle/GM_config) 🖤
    (Available from the Tampermonkey menu, under the script name)
  • Added setting to disregard new titles if they're shorter than the old ones. Duh, should have done that from the start ^^
    (ON by default)
  • The new titles, as well as additional info (old titles, errors, warnings) are now always shown in the element title (mouse hover tooltip), where applicable
  • Moved away from extending the whole layout width in favor of just showing the overflowing new titles.
    This is to prevent clashes with google widgets and panels that may appear on the right.
    If anything is covered, the longet titles are now always available on mouse hover over the links.
  • Fixed a potential issue where titles containing special chars could inadvertently render HTML instead of just their escaped text 😬
  • Using my function library again, also for nicer logging
  • Moved to classes for styling instead of "spaghetti" element styles
  • I dunno, probably some other stuff. I'm an artist, not a book keeper 😜
