Dev channel update to 81.0.381.0 is live
Couple of suggestions:
1. Is it possible to add support for navigation bar shortcuts (Ctrl+L, Alt+D) to full screen mode? See original Edge as an UI example
2. TIL that reading view still exist but it requires extra effort since it is visible only in "Read aloud" mode. It would be nice to have it as icon in address bar (and or shortcut).
PS: Thanks for great product

Hi,
With the cursor sitting anywhere, Ctrl+L & Alt+D, in Edge C, both DO bring the focus to the Nav Bar; similar to Edge HTML. Edge C will highlight any existing URL & start typing anew (there).
Any site offering Reading View will have its icon showing at the right end of the URL
NB: Not all sites offer it. When not offered, icon will not show.
Cheers,

It would be nice to have it as icon in address bar (and or shortcut).Ssh78 it does, but that functionality may still be hidden behind a flag for you. If you enable the edge://flags/#edge-reading-view flag, you should see an icon on the right side of the address bar to enter Reading View (now called Immersive Reader) when visiting eligible pages, just like in Edge Legacy:

Josh, the flag is no longer needed. It's just that not all sites offer RV & when it is not offered its icon is not there. (Only) If & when offered its icon WILL show @ the right end of the URL.
