Configurable options for the "Share" option
Issue
Currently the "Share" option is hardcoded (in /main/ui/src/components/Share/index.tsx) to offer options of link copy, facebook, twitter, or system share. This seems very inflexible, and a number of use cases could all benefit from having the share options being configurable.
Use cases
- Corporate intranet deployments of Answer, where sharing to external sites is not allowable or should be discouraged. In these use cases, removal of some/all sharing options might be preferred.
- Changes in the sharing landscape. For example, "Twitter" is now "X", and that shouldn't require a software rebuild to accommodate.
- Support for new options. For example, Adding BlueSky, or other new / up and coming sharing sites.
Suggested solution
Make the sharing options (names and endpoints) configurable in either the Admin -> Settings or Admin -> Customize panels. Might require a two step solution, where one step is configuring the name and endpoint, and the other step is the ability to define a new / non-standard endpoint that can be referenced.
