    Perhaps this conversation about Chromium Edge should be looked at as part of a bigger picture.

     

    Should the positioning of all buttons on all apps made by Microsoft be flexible in the same way as it is possible to customise the ribbons in Microsoft Office?

     

    For now it would be nice to set a standard. You cannot please everyone all of the time. I believe that Chromium Edge should look different to Chrome because it has the potential to do so much more.

Moving the bookmarks button from its current location may confuse the many users of Classic Edge. The bookmarks button (called Favorites/Favourites in Classic Edge) has only recently been added to Chromium Edge. I think it makes sense for it to stay where it is currently, but perhaps at a later date all buttons could all be customised by each user in a similar way to how they can be in Firefox.
