Share a blog post block #25027

I can't easily share a blog post on social media

Many of the social networks make a sharing button available. The HTML and JavaScript is usually generated by the social networking website and can be copied

This block would compliment the recently introduced social icons block

I believe we can get a developer started on this and just base it on the current Social block.

Any thoughts or ideas? @jasmussen @jameskoster

@ndiego made this plugin: https://wordpress.org/plugins/social-sharing-block/ Which could perhaps be made as a base for a Social Sharing block in the Block editor.

Also, the buttons generated by the various social networks also include tracking information. Not all but many. It might not be advisable to use their social buttons.
