[iOS] Sharing images as images (lemmy.world)

I searched and found a post on the issue from months ago, but it seems to not have gotten attention from the devs.

It's really annoying to open an image, try to share it somewhere else, see the share sheet showing the image's information.. Just to have the link to it shared instead of the actual image.

Can there be a setting to choose which behavior you want to have for this, please? I imagine thare are people who'd rather share the links, but I think it's a good compromise to have a setting for it.

If you want to share the image itself, share from the image viewer. That shares the actual file.

Edit: and don’t long press share. Press the share icon.

Nice, thank you.

If you long press the image and click copy it should copy the image to your clipboard.
