SUMMARY
***
I use a Windows Server network share (SMB) for pretty much all my projects and
media. I can't drag-and-drop files from my network share to my web browser for
posting on social media sites - in other words, the drag-and-drop functionality
of sites like Twitter, Reddit, and Gab.

If I copy a file to my local disk, I can upload/attach just fine.
***


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Connect to SMB share from the address bar or "Add Network Folder" button
2. Open your favorite social media site - I've tested Twitter, Reddit, and Gab
3. Make a new post and drag-and-drop supported media (photos or videos)

OBSERVED RESULT
Nothing happens. It's as if no drag-and-drop attempt was made.

EXPECTED RESULT
Upload/attach media per normal behavior for the given social media site.
