Description

**Is your suggestion related to a problem? Please describe.**
I want to send a link on other platforms to people with which they can add me on Matrix/Element. This is possible in the mobile app. Yet there is no such feature in the Desktop app. It is otherwise difficult to ask people to join matrix add add you as a contact.

**Describe the solution you'd like**
A "Invite friends" link that copies to system clipboard. This link should be placed in the widget that comes up when you click on your user-icon (profile).
```
Hey, talk to me on Element: https://matrix.to/#/@username:matrixserver.tld
```
You can send this link to your contacts via other means.
**Describe alternatives you've considered**
none

**Additional context**
none
