No response

Additional context

See element blog post about this feature: https://element.io/blog/element-launches-e2ee-location-sharing/

Some issues/to-dos I found on the element-web GH for inspiration:

• Create a way to access more "send" options (see image 1). Three-dot menu next to the current emoji would be "standard"
• Must be sent/stored E2EE
• For real time location: Set expiration time/date, at which point the location will no longer be updated
• Issue to avoid: Don't crash if location cannot be found (Permission not granted, GPS/position not yet known)
• Issue to avoid: Don't forget to resize the map depending on the device/available width

I started using cinny today, and I prefer how the interface is managed compared to element (and the themes are lovely!), but, of course, features are missing. I wouldn't mind trying to document some of the candies that are missing and create issues related to them and expand if that isn't a burden to the dev/contributors. My goal wouldn't to overwhelm you, but to have a clear view of what has been done and what is missing so new and unfamiliar users know what is going on.

Would love to sort this on cinny-desktop when it's sorted out on cinny web.

For reference, it'd would be done by tauri-plugin-geolocation, but it seems to be a v2 tauri module.

Thus it's currently blocked by cinnyapp/cinny-desktop#398

@kfiven tag this one too if you can! Cheers!
