Help with trying to Add Shortcut to Home Page / New Page: No drag and drop?

I can’t believe that you have to manually type (on Windows 11) a URL to add a shortcut to a new tab/window. I refuse to believe this. There MUST be a way that, when surfing the web, that you’re on a site (e.g. https://www.cnn.com) to drag the lock to the Home icon on the toolbar and add a shortcut. RIght now all it asks you is if you want to make a new homepage. WHat??

Please somebody tell me what I’m doing wrong. I must be missing something.

Thank you!
