"Added the ability to paste multiple items into a Collection at the same time."
Maybe I am just dense, but I can't seem to find this feature to test it. Can you point me in the right direction?

I was wondering the same. at first i thought they mean dragging multiple elements in a web page and dropping them into one collection but that has always been available

I actually hadn't done much dragging and dropping of items into collections, trying it again now shows me how useful it is, thanks.
When you say dragging multiple items in though, what exactly do you mean?
For example, when I highlight a block of search results, (and the accompanying text as a side effect), it just drops a single item in the collection with all of the test in it and the links not rendered as links. Is that what you mean?
That is also useful, but I thought at first you meant there was a way to multi select links in the page and drag them in, resulting inn multiple separate entries in the collection. *That* would be sure useful to me. It hadn't occurred to me to want it, but now I do. 🙂- HotCakeXJan 09, 2020MVPSpoiler

so it begs the question, what this exactly means
