The Short URL functionality is enabled but you need to login with your credentials before creating a short link.
This restriction to users is intentional as per https://gitlab.com/Bitergia/c/Wikimedia/support/-/issues/46 which I reported in Nov 2018.
(I mentioned not showing a "Short URL" option for anonymous users, but that also seems more complicated).
