How to add edit and delete buttons in django admin

Question

I want to add 2 buttons in django admin, like on this screenshot, but instead of "Deposit" and "Withdraw" there should be "Edit" and "Delete"

I found lots of answers how to add custom actions, but is there a proper way to add such buttons? All methods for them are written, it seems to me that this two buttons should be added mush more easier.

picture came from here:

but I’m interested in easier solution, if such exists

list_display from here provides me to add smth for every object. So I added this in my MyModelAdmin:

def change_button(self, obj):
    return format_html('<a class="btn" href="/admin/my_app/my_model/{}/change/">Change</a>', obj.id)

def delete_button(self, obj):
    return format_html('<a class="btn" href="/admin/my_app/my_model/{}/delete/">Delete</a>', obj.id)

list_display = ('__str__', 'change_button', 'delete_button')

And now this two buttons are added. This is still not the best way I guess, but mush easier then adding any other action.
