How to use GitHub
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
As user Alice from OrgA.
OrgA and OrgB are collaborating on many projects together.
Admins from OrgA and OrgB made the 2 servers trusted by each other such that users are auto completed for federated shares.
Now Bob shares a folder to Alice.
Currently, the "accept remote share" experience is not ideal, so Alice will miss this.
Alice will not be aware of the invitation from Bob, and will not be able to collaborate with Bob.
Describe the solution you'd like
One way to fix it, is to have an option in admin>sharing that would auto accept federated shares from trusted server.
And the option would be off by default to not surprise current admins.
And if the user didn't say they want to auto accept the share, then the share will also not be accepted.
Describe alternatives you've considered
If the "accept remote share" experience would be better, this would already help.
I think this issue would help mitigate the problem I'm describing.
Additional context
In term of implementation, I would consider:
