Native "Share to DEV" button is now on Stack Overflow

If you click the share link on Stack Overflow you now see three options where there were once only two.

If you click the DEV icon, you'll be brought to a DEV editor with a prefilled Stack Overflow liquid tag to make sharing questions and answers more easily within this community.

You may do so in order to share a helpful tip, enrich a tutorial, or editorialize or host a "meta" discussion about the Stack Overflow content. With a much looser format than Stack Overflow itself, feel free to have sprawling conversations.

This feature was made possible by two features recently shipped on DEV:

Let's use this functionality to help bring light to all the most important questions:

What's the difference between JavaScript and Java?

CodePen, Replit, and now Stack Overflow all have Share-to-DEV buttons. GitHub, will you be next?

Note, at the moment this is only live on the desktop version of the site, not mobile.

Happy coding!

And what's the middle one?
