Description

I would like to share links and define the file ordering and the view style.

So I think it would be a cool feature to add parameters to shared urls, e.g.:
mydomain.com/nextcloud/index.php/s/DWGkxCzci5jAXJ3?view=grid&ordering=name-descending

Research direction

The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by locating the public-share URL handling and the code that controls shared-file ordering and view style; confirm how query parameters are currently handled. Done means shared URLs can specify the requested ordering and view style without breaking existing links.
