Change default field in extension (tag, note, title)

There used to be a setting: set tag as default field when opening clipper. I can't find that anymore. Did I misread or can I request to bring it back?

Reordering & toggling popup options

One of the recent updates brought collection suggestions. This may be useful for those primarily using collections. But for those primarily using tags, this means a much slower bookmarking process: instead of entering the title, then pressing Tab 2 times to focus on Tags, the user now has to press Tab 4-5 times depending on the number of collection suggestions. That is annoying.
I can think of 2 solutions:
- Remove collection suggestions. Probably not ideal for those who use them.
- Let the user reorder and activate/deactivate sections such as Tabs, Description, Tags, Collections and now Notes. This would really speed up the workflow as the number keyboard presses would significantly decrease (along with decluttering the UI).

Extension popup focuses on Note instead of Title

For the last few days the browser extension popup has been auto-focusing on the Note section instead of focusing on Title which it used to do. This is a bad decision.
Most people use Raindrop as a bookmark manager, not a notetaking app. Editing the bookmark title is a much more frequent and useful action than adding a note. Now the user has to reach for the mouse or mash Shift+Tab to put the focus back on the Title section. Please change back.

Cursor start on tags

when I create a new bookmark, the cursor is added to the title of the popup window. I have to tab 4 times in order to get the cursor into the tags field, which is not intuitive and frustrating.

On new bookmark add, set tags field active instead of bookmark title

I'm specifically talking about chrome extension.
When i add a bookmark with a keyboard shortcut, the cursor for typing is set on the bookmark title field. Title is usually already set pretty clear as the page title, so i think it would be more useful if you could add tags faster using less keystrokes.
This is another thing I personally really miss from Pocket since i moved to raindrop ;)

The focus need to be on the tags not notes
Harsh K
Hi,
I have been a loyal user of your app. It's fantastic. However a recent introduction of notes feature has caused a problem for me.
When I want to bookmark a particular link, I want to click on it, tag it and be done with it. The new notes feature has the focus (cursor) in the notes field instead of tags, I am least interested in adding any notes to 1700 links which I tag every week. But now I have to click on the tags (since it is already not there) and then add a tag in it and then click out of it. Now imagine that I have to do it 1700 times a week. Total nuts.
In fact in the UI you should move up tags and then put notes below it. I may add notes to just few of the bookmarks and not every bookmark.
Hopefully you can incorporate these changes ASAP.
Thanks

Please make it a user-setting.
I was looking for a way to make the tag field take focus.
98% of the time it's how I do it: Bookmark and tag.

Kurdy: I agree it needs to be a user setting, the "tags" are the only feature I use on a daily basis and the main reason I use Raindrop.io

I like the idea, but please give us the choice. Some users may prefer keeping the title to remove SEO clutter from it before adding the tags :)
In extensions settings, please give us the choice of the field to focus

This would be very helpful as an option. Or just change the default
Right now the clipper default text field is the end of the title field, which is not a good default.
