Just messing with the app, looking for fun stuff and I wanted to show one of the videos I found with my sister; but there seemingly no way to get a link? How do I get a link to a specific video to share it somewhere?

Yes, there is a share button! Are you using the desktop version or the app?

The android app, specifically. I eventually found it by going into the user's profile and then going to the video from that, but the main page scroll doesn't have anything but the link to the user's profile, the like button and the comment button. IDK if that's on purpose or if there is supposed to be one, but if it's not a thing there may I suggest adding it there?

Yeah, there's a known bug that has the share button in the Android app pushed down too far on the main feed. You can see it if you swipe up slowly, and if you tap just above the person icon that goes to your profile page, it should activate the button

Yeah could be android app related, in the iOS version there is a share button per post
