** Description

In addition to the "share" functionality currently present for youtube videos, I'd also like to have a feature similar to the one in the desktop youtube site that allows the user to check the "Start at ..." checkbox and use the corresponding text box to specify the timestamp for the shared link. The text box has a default value which is the current time of the video being played.

If this feature gets accepted, I am willing to take a stab at it.

I'm pretty sure this hasn't been reported before. I'm not sure though how useful will this be for other users, but it seems to be quite useful.

You can already do this. While playing the video, click on down arrow mark at top right corner, and long press on share button.

Yeah it is already there.

I think this is sufficient, but the share button to the bottom of the player does not behave the same way. Is this intentional?

I don't really know, but even in newpipe issues, i remember reading this same issue and devs suggested to just long press on the button i mentioned rather than on share button in bottom of video.
