Feature Request: Suggest existing tags when adding new URLs

Type

• General question or discussion

What is the problem that your feature request solves

When adding new URLs, the input field for tags is a plain text field. I sometimes end up writing a tag name slightly different to one that I have used previously, thereby creating two tags for the same meaning.

Describe the ideal specific solution you'd want, and whether it fits into any broader scope of changes

Ideally, the text field would be replaced with a combo box that suggests/autocompletes existing tags, while still allowing creating new ones. Examples: https://github.com/yairEO/tagify or https://mui.com/material-ui/react-select/#chip

What hacks or alternative solutions have you tried to solve the problem?

Keep a second tab open with the list of tags. For every tag I'm not sure about, CTRL+F the list.

How badly do you want this new feature?

• It's an urgent deal-breaker, I can't live without it
• It's important to add it in the near-mid term future
• It would be nice to have eventually
