Suggestion about bookmark button position
xlollomanx There was some debate in the podcast on WindowsCentral yesterday following a discussion about the forthcoming SurfaceNeo and Windows 10X for foldable devices as to whether having the X (Close) maximise and minimise buttons at the top right of an app is now sensible.
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.

for users coming from Google chrome it should be familiar. Google doesn't put much on the left side, everything is on the right,
but I also agree with you for the ability to be able to relocate all buttons in the toolbar (including favorites, home, collections etc), either to the left or right side of the Omnibox.
HotCakeX Graham-STMC even google put items on the left, if you enable bookmarks bar, items start coming from left specially if you have a small amount of folder.Look at the screenshot. I don't like that bar especially on my notebook because it use too much portion of the screen, a button between home button and searchbar that can call all folder and bookmarks (like firefox) will be very useful in my opinion. By the way I'm asking myself if is possible to mod this button position? Like using css on vivaldi. The possibility to move any element of the interface will be wonderful if implemented.
- Oh now I understand your situation and why you asked for the favorites button to be placed on the left side. making the toolbar completely Fluid is nice IMO, like everything be draggable and movable.
HotCakeX I recently added an adblocker and immediately wanted to drag the bookmarks/favourites list button across so that it was next to the "add bookmark/favourite" button that is part of the search box. I am very pleased to see the new small + symbol on this button.
I do hope that the other features from Classic Edge will be available in Chromuim Edge and that soon the buttons for adding notes and sharing will appear.

- Interesting, can you send me the link? I'd like to follow that thread.
- I am not sure if it is appropriate to advertise podcasts or other media here so I will message you directly.
