I recently started getting share.google links to web articles from my parents. I asked them to just give me the direct link instead, but I’m sure Google is making that as unintuitive to the user as possible. I’m not even sure where exactly these links come from.
You can tap the three-dots menu in webview -> Open in Chrome -> Share from Chrome. It’s not exactly intuitive to explain how or why to do it to non-technical people though. Annoying as fuck

Google search app, and Google news, I’m pretty sure.
If you search from the “google search app” or the home screen seach bar on most android phones, it’s very very difficult to get real links.
None of the URL cleaner tools I’ve found are able to resolve them to the real destination either.
