#Shared Links requiring metadata to download

With regards to shared links, why must show metadata be selected for allowing public user to download? I'd prefer for the two to be mutually exclusive, so that someone can download without metadata.
I recall this used to be allowable / an option...?

Because when you download the original file it necessarily has all that metadata in it

Can this be added back as a feature request? With "another vendor not to be named", they allow this option.

What does it add over right click>save as on the image?

I just did a download vs right click, save as (as you mentioned), and correct, the right-click option appears to remove the metadata.

That is what I am requesting with these options be mutually exclusive.

Metadata can be shown, but when public user downloads, I would like them only to have what is provided with the right click save option.

#

Almost like a, "Show Metadata" vs "Share Metadata" option, if that makes sense.

This is definitely a "privacy-first" option -- if publicly sharing and still wanting to allow downloads, I don't want users having my GPS coordinates, etc.

Well, we already have the preview image you’re seeing in the browser. All this would be is serving that file when you click download
