I think the mid-credits is shortly after Infinity War. Maybe a couple days. End-credits was just a funny tag on, but if it matters at all I think it would have been shortly after the end of CM.

My exact feelings. This character deserved a bit more pre-Endgame, but I get why they inserted this directly before: the introduction of the most powerful Avenger immediately before the biggest fight for the universe.

the various members of the avengers team have bits and pieces of that power set, maybe not quite at the same level. but what good is that against a foe that can reshape the fabric of space and time on a universal scale? it's like fighting a tank with a 2 foot long tree branch and failing, and then whipping out a tree branch that's 4 feet long.

edit: also, CM's power is derived from a plane engine, which in turn is derived from a fraction of the tesseract's power. so she's using like a tiny piece of 3rd hand power from just a single stone, which now belongs to Thanos plus 5 other stones. so I'm assuming his defeat can't possibly happen while that glove is on his hand.
Well, the glove looked like it shattered after "the snap", so Thanos may not be able to harness all of the stones' power.

And to me Captain Marvel has been presented as Marvel's version of Superman, which would make her substantially more powerful than Iron Man and any other character in the MCU, including Thanos.

I'm not super familiar with the comics and on what level Titans are as beings, but Thanos was defeatable without the glove, as evidenced by Thor piercing his chest.

The really interesting part was Ronin's comment about "coming back for the weapon", meaning CM. Thanos would know of her and accounted for her abilities, so I'm guessing he has a plan to harness her for his own gain.
