Thanks for reporting. It seems you upgraded recently to version 9, which makes the edit button opt-in. When upgrading major versions you should always read the upgrade guide, specifically this. You need the following setting:

theme:
  features:
    - content.action.edit

Edit: corrected setting.

Thanks. I missed it.
If someone else finds this issue, the right setting is:

theme:
  features:
    - content.action.edit

Oops, you're right. Corrected my initial answer 😉
