Thank you for sharing concerns about unnamed links on websites. I understand the frustration of navigating through unclear links.
While labelling links using assistive technology might seem like a workaround, I would encourage website developers and owners to make their sites WCAG compliant. This would ensure that all users, including those with visual impairments, have a better experience.
Perhaps we can promote awareness and encourage website owners to prioritize accessibility. Please write to them with your concern.
Sincerely,

You are quite right Muhammad, I'm aware quite well how to execute it
with iPhone Voice-Over and if I'm not mistaken, in JAWS it is known as
label graphic, hope to find a solution to this problem while continue
following this subject up on both NVDA lists.

Also, I’d say be polite when you contact companies. Don’t attack them for not being accessible, explain politely that you would like the problem fixed.
All the best
