"Share" Button on Game Pages
Хочу запропонувати одну корисну штуку. Добавити кнопку "Поділитись" на сторінки ігор у Steam.
Вона буде розташована там, де вже є "Додати до бажаного", "Відстежувати" та "Ігнорувати". Зараз, щоб поділитися посиланням на гру, потрібно його копіювати, потім відкривати соцмережу і вставляти, це довго і не дуже зручно. Через це люди рідше діляться посиланнями на ігри.

I have a simple but useful idea. Let's add a "Share" button to game pages on Steam. It would go in the same spot where you find "Add to Wishlist", "Follow", and "Ignore".
Right now, if you want to share a game link, you have to manually copy it, then open a social media app, and paste it. It's a hassle and takes time. Because of this, people share game links less often

I'm not against the idea. But looking at things it doesn't seem like Valve is all that interested in tons of social media integration at every step.

Also, maybe I'm just old, but I don't think copying and pasting a link is really so much work. It does make your arguments read a bit silly. Plus, your argument kinda makes it sound like Valve is very invested (or should be) in sharing links.

At any rate Valve knows social media exists, if they wanted to make all sorts of stuff shareable like that they would. Furthermore developers could add their own links to store pages if they thought sharing links to their store pages was some benefit.

Like I said, I'm not against it. But it feels pretty trivial either way. And sometimes the lack of a feature that's not some obscure thing might mean they've declined to go that way, rather than not thought of it.
There is a share button in the mobile app, in the exact location you asked for.

As for the client, only left clicking the address bar copies the link for ease of sharing the link.

I second this opinion. I don't really care about social media either, but I'd like to see that the share button opens up your Steam Friends and lets you select one or more, then opens up a chat from there.

This would go towards the feature that lets you see what games you and your friend own so your friend own. My current thought was "I wish it was easier to share this with my friend group to ask should we take a look at buying up a pack of these for our Co-Op group."

Sure I can find the link, open/find the main windows (I'm browsing in the tab window), or open friends from the icon, find my friend/group, past it, type a message. However some integration to do all that would be helpful in getting me to spend more money, more quickly.
