Hi! 👋

Firstly, thanks for your work on this project! 🙂

Issue:
When sharing via Reddit, the link is not automatically populated

Proposed fix:
Appending '/web' as a route before '/submit' seems to fix the issue

Today I used patch-package to patch react-share@4.4.1 for the project I'm working on.

Here is the diff that solved my problem:

diff --git a/node_modules/react-share/lib/RedditShareButton.js b/node_modules/react-share/lib/RedditShareButton.js
index dc8ea2a..da2a296 100644
