Looks like this will be external but going to leave that decision to @amyevans

[amyevans]

Reproduced the issue in mobile Safari, looks good to move to External.

This issue does not make sense.

1. Images should not have copies to clipboard links as the tests say on Disable Copy link context menu for attachments and url. #9955.
2. Only links will have these options.

I think Copy Link option is disabled behind beta that's why you are not able to see it.

Another issue is that the mini-menu should not be shown on mobileWeb.

reviewing today, but seems we're unsure about this one. cc @parasharrajat any thoughts?

[sketchydroide]

like @parasharrajat copy link is no loger supposed to be visible on images, and I think the beta explanation makes sense

[parasharrajat]

Now the real issue is that Mini-menu should not be shown on the mobile web. It is only for Web and Desktop. Instead on mobile/mWeb, long-pressing should open a bottom menu.

This issue seems like a regression.

[sketchydroide]

yeah the beta is checked here

App/src/pages/home/report/ContextMenu/ContextMenuActions.js

Line 133 in 1b1879c

return Permissions.canUseCommentLinking(betas) && type === CONTEXT_MENU_TYPES.REPORT_ACTION && !isAttachmentTarget;

so I think this is good to close
