Description
See https://web.dev/web-share/
We should support the Web Share API to have native sharing dialogs for all the link shares. You could then directly share to email and other apps, natively from the operating system.
This could possibly also supersede our custom Social sharing via?

Research direction
Start by reviewing the Web Share API reference linked in the issue and the existing Social sharing integration. No repository files, tests, or entry points are named, so locating the link-sharing implementation and deciding browser fallbacks will require project familiarity. Done means link shares can use native operating-system dialogs where supported, with the existing sharing behavior considered.
