- Another option is to not use button styling in the bar at all. The "Ask Question" button can become another tab along with "Posts", "Tags", and "Edits":
- ![Codidact Meta site with all 4 items styled as tabs, with "Posts" selected](https://meta.codidact.com/uploads/moo51loougtpzr756ypx7nmefz7q)
- This is my personal preference as it simplifies the interface without changing how the user interacts with it. All 4 items are now treated as tabs, rather than one of them being treated as a button even though it behaves just like the other tabs when clicked.

- I think this fits particularly well with the fact that the "Ask Question" tab saves your progress so you can come back to your draft question later. It really is a tab you can come back to, rather than a button that generates a brand new question each time it is clicked.
