You have `link_counts`, so you could add correct ordering there, but preserve links as is in a future version of Discourse, or maybe add a ‘links\_raw’. If you would accept a new JSON property that offers links in the correct order then I can PR this.

I will have to work around this temporarily by taking cooked and taking links from that or patching Discourse.
