The bug

The Android app has a feature to share an asset with another app which is great. However, the icon is not consistent with the Android design language. It should be this icon: https://fonts.google.com/icons?selected=Material%20Symbols%20Outlined%3Ashare%3AFILL%400%3Bwght%40400%3BGRAD%400%3Bopsz%4048

Meanwhile, the web app already uses this icon with the 'create link to share' function. Which does not feel right either. This functionality should be represented by this icon: https://fonts.google.com/icons?selected=Material%20Symbols%20Outlined%3Alink%3AFILL%400%3Bwght%40400%3BGRAD%400%3Bopsz%4048 (or maybe this one: https://fonts.google.com/icons?selected=Material%20Symbols%20Outlined%3Aadd_link%3AFILL%400%3Bwght%40400%3BGRAD%400%3Bopsz%4048

Hi @michelheusschen, I noticed you fixing some other UI inconsistencies recently. What are your thoughts on this one?
