I'm a web sysop and support engineer. My skills are mainly in back-end: Java, Linux, Python, PostgreSQL, Git, and GitLab. Currently I'm learning front-end skills: JavaScript, and Ruby.
I disagree with all of these, save for the Open Editors. I suppose I can look up the setting for that (how to disable is not in this article, just your opinion?)
I use Breadcrumbs to open files or jump to functions within a file. Better than the Side Bar most of the time because you navigate hierarchically and don't switch mode depending if you are within a file or a directory. And it takes less screen space than the Side Bar.
I use the Minimapas my scroll bar, and I keep it in the left where scroll bars belong. It is very handy to visually locate a block of code or to see patterns in big log files - all the utility of a paper print out without killing trees.
I keep the Side Bar on the left - again, this is where an overview belongs (in languages that read left-to-right anyway): high level on the left, work to the right as you get more specific. I toggle it with a key and the shift of the main window actually assists in focus on the Side Bar.
The Status Bar is a crutch from my Emacs days, but it too is very handy for seeing ... the status of the editor. Also some extensions put useful things there, like your Spotify, or even the current time, which is handy in Full Screen view.
Believe me or not, you are one of the exceptional because I haven't anyone till now using breadcrumb. I have seen less than 5-10% using minimap. But this is different thing.
I should mention that these are my opinion based on my experience and might not be true for.
