@ekager is this part of what was discussed during planning today? should this issue be closed if we go back to a native share sheet?

Same behaviour if you share to Twitter or Mastodon, user would expect "meta title + url" to be shared.

Thank you in advance

@ekager can you re-open https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/fenix/pull/4022 to solve this issue?

Hmm... Are you sure it is a bug? I prefer sharing only the URL, for example.
