Description

For a more fluid user experience for sharing LBRY links, for example when sending a video link to Kodi media center, it would be a huge improvement to be able to long-press a video from the list view and share from there. This is how NewPipe works.

Currently, with LBRY, we have to press the video, let it start playing, stop the playback, and then press the share button.

Research direction

No files or tests are named. Start by locating the video list view's item interaction handling and the existing share action; done means a long-press on a listed video can share its LBRY link without starting playback.
