Description
Hi,
Fast
Since you can batch delete and download, would it not make sense to share a batch of files with someone in one go?
Slow
I recently told someone I would share some pictures with him. I have them in my InstantUpload folder.
Selected about 10 of them and thought I could click somewhere to share the selected items. Apparently this is not possible, so I went through the process of clicking the share icon ten times and typing his name and uncheck the "can edit" box every time.
On web chat someone suggested creating a directory, moving/copying them in there and sharing the folder. But this really is a bad workaround I feel.
Thanks for listening and for Nextcloud!

Research direction
No files or tests are named. Start by tracing the existing batch delete/download actions and single-file sharing flow, then determine how selected files could share one recipient and permission choice. Done means multiple selected files can be shared in one operation without repeating the single-file workflow.
