UI
Really like these suggestions. I would also like to bring back Edge Classic's reader mode, either as an extension or built into Edge. Having Favorites, Downloads and History open up in a pane with tabs would be great.
Please, also bring back tab previews. Give the user the option to choose between showing the tab preview on the taskbar, when hovering over tabs, both or none.

Miguel, if you are meaning Reading view, it IS, now, in Edge C; has been for a while, actually.
And, just introduced is Reading list... imported from Edge.
I have to agree, the approach to things (menus, structure, access) in Edge is preferred; somehow more intuitive in how it's organized or done.
One thing, for me, is having items in ellipsis done as a new full window tab of its own... that seems ridiculous, to me; much prefer the Edge method in that regard.
Cheers,
Drew

Yea, "Immersive Reader" is available, but that doesn't mean Reader is. Not sure whether Miguel Ulloa meant that or not, but when I hear Reader, I mean the actual reader.
Sure, they added Inking to PDF reader, but (touch) scrolling is so unresponsive I just can't make myself switch. And that's just PDF reader. Where is e-books reader? The one made so nice in the old Edge? The one they are planning on deprecating soon, according to the notification it opens when opening e-books?
It was the biggest disappointment, since knowing Edge Dev will replace it soon, this pretty much means they don't even plan on adding it inside!
Things which made me love old Edge was Reading experience, be it on websites, PDFs, or e-books! Touch was so friendly and responsive, I just couldn't use anything else! And now, some things actually seem like they aren't even coming back.
