Copy message link #2361

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. I would like to be able to link to a message, for archiving/bookmarking purposes, or to be able to refer to it from an internal issue report.

Describe the solution you'd like When I long-press a message, I'd like to have a "Copy message link" menu option.

Describe alternatives you've considered The web interface has this functionality. I can login to Nextcloud on my laptop to copy the link there, but it sucks that I can't do it directly from my phone.

copy a message link itself should be easy to implement. It would make sense for a scenario when you want to share the link by email so someone else could open it in browser.

However to open a link on phone and be redirected to the talk app and to the chat with the selected message will be harder. see https://github.com/nextcloud/talk-android/issues/847

i think https://github.com/nextcloud/talk-android/issues/847 should be solved first before we implement to copy a link as it would be confusing if the android talk app itself is not able to handle the link that which was copied from it.
