"Copy link address" for 🔗 share link popup?

@codinghorror

if this is working in all browsers now we could auto-copy the link when the share dialog is popped.

What about we only auto-copy on the share dialog on the button, and don’t copy on the dialog on the timestamp?

Or vice-versa

I even agree that the “+ New Topic” is not particularly well placed (nor well-labelled), but whether or not to move it is unrelated to this topic

Except that the “reply” button is currently in the way. The reply button was shoved in to this placement to make way for the current sidebar system.

The currently serves two purposes (share and reply), so it can’t-not get addressed here.

Please, this… Right now I have to select the text I want to talk about, then go and click the " New Topic" button.

Auto-copying when I click on has this workflow going from bad to worse.

Agreed @techapj I thought we understood not to take any action on this for now as the benefits are minimal and the risk is high.

Looks like @techAPJ only made a PR, not a commit - so nothing’s in Discourse yet.

Okay, got it. I learned a lot in the process, so I believe it was time well spent.

Yep, closing the PR for now.

This has been working for quite a while
