Actually, shouldn't tags be used for that purpose? Just a suggestion.
Charlie Bucher
@Charles Deschênes: Agreed, this was my initial thought as well. However I can see where some people might use this. Especially with some sort of Smart Folders that allow for both collections and tags, among other criteria options.

@Charlie Bucher: I agree that Smart Folders based on tags would be desirable. I love Raindrop.io and this would add a powerful feature that would be extremely useful.

It would be good to have this feature as I am trying to put together a reading list for public sharing but found that bookmarks cannot be added since they are already stored in another collection.

I consider adding additional button called "Duplicate" or "Copy" in bookmark edit screen that allow in fast pin one bookmark into multiple collections. What do you think?

@Rustem Mussabekov: honestly not as great as being able to do it when you first save a bookmark
Luzius Fischer
@Zee M Kane: best if both is possible. when saving the bookmark but afterwards as well

@Rustem Mussabekov: Make it like Gmail Labels.... Then I would consider becoming a paid/premium member once again.

Hi @Rustem Mussabekov, How can your premium feature 'Duplicate and broken links finder' take out duplicate pins if some duplicate pins are intended and some pins are not?
My preference is that as a user you can display one pin in multiple groups, without duplicating the pin.

@Rustem Mussabekov: For me a duplicate or copy function would only work if both items stay connected to each other (like a carbon copy) so that if you want to change something you don't have to change multiple items.

@Rustem Mussabekov: I was more thinking about a checkbox option when add a pin to a group in order to add one pin to multiple groups with ease.

@Rustem Mussabekov: Can you allow us to add it to multiple collections using the add button (and make a notice saying "you already have this bookmarked in the collection [name]. Do you want to save this bookmark to [name] collection as well?"

@Rustem Mussabekov: As you already use the word duplicate to mean something else, I'd stay away from that. I've seen this feature called "Replicate" on another tool. Clone, would be another.
But as others say, I'd like to be able to also do it from the web clipper. For example, recently I read an article about optimising video and images on your website. I'd like to be able to bookmark from the web clipper into both my images and videos collections.

@Luzius Fischer: I agree to what Luzius says, It seems to be the most practical and interesting if you can do it when adding a bookmark, but also afterwards (for the bookmarks that already exist for example).

@Rustem Mussabekov: Sounds great!

Alternately, could it just be possible to pin tags in the sidebar like collections so they are easy to get to? My bookmarks are primarily organized with tags so can have them in multiple places but it takes to steps to get to them.

Please make it
optional
only. I use Raindrop.io as an archive and to save my browsing history. I love that it will only save bookmarks once - and that it shows “known bookmarks” right away. I understand the use case of others, so an toggle within preferences would be great.P

Just please allow for duplication of bookmarks in general.
Youtube now allows for creating a URL that is time stamped, so I can get to a specific part of a video simply by clicking a time stamped URL. But if said video has several parts I'm interested in viewing, without having to manually fast forward to each spot, I need to have access to each unique URL, and thus need to several copies of a bookmark.

I teach an intro to design class and a web design class, and I've just discovered some of the resources that apply to my intro to design class could be great for my web design class too - but I can't have the same bookmark in both places. I want them in separate collections so I have the right resources all in one place for my students.
Asmaâ EL HAJJAMI
100% for this. I believe bookmarking should be a quick & swift process. If I'm going to tag my bookmarks every time, then Bookmarking would lose its practicality. I think tags are really for another system, different from the bookmark folders.

Agreed!

The way lightroom CC uses collections would work. You could even update "tags" to work like this and allow for visibility and groupings of tags in side bar to make organizing easier.
