How can I turn off native sharing?

more options

Sharing has changed? Is this called "native sharing?" I do not want a Windows-centric app experience. I just want to click share, enter email, send. and move on with my life. No, email link is not what I want because, again, it's a Windows-centric app.

Do I have any choice in the matter of how I want to share?

Chosen solution

What email would you like Email Link to connect with? Usually that is governed by the setting discussed in this article: Change the program used to open email links. Does it have the site/software you want?

Apparently this has been a feature for a long time. Don't know why I didn't notice but I've recently switched back to FF from Chrome because of its annoyances.
