Copy to Clipboard in Firefox and Paste the Link
Sending the link with the built-in Sharing pane is the easiest way, but if the app or platform does not appear, you can copy and paste the link into the desired app.
In this approach, you have to leave the Firefox browser and switch to the app on which you want to share the link.

It will copy the page link to the clipboard that you can paste into any other application. - Next, launch the X app on your Android device.
- Tap the Create icon and paste the copied link in the text field.
- Finally, hit the button to share.
That’s it. The copied link from the Firefox app will be shared via the selected app.
You can replicate the above steps on any desired application that is installed on your Android phone. You can use Gmail, Telegram, Instagram, WhatsApp, or any other app to paste the copied link and send it.
