This makes me realize that Reddit development got stale, this should have been an updated feature years ago.

Reddit development got stale when, unfortunately and tragically, their best dev killed himself in 2013

That’s an excellent feature I had no clue about!

Hopefully one happy side effect of this is that it won't become a cultural thing on the Fediverse to put a typo in your post title and then have a comment section full of people all calling attention to the typo instead of the actual question/topic of the post.

Although I'm curious about how they might address the "clickbait" issue of people having a massively upvoted/boosted post, and then changing the post to say something else entirely.

That seems like it might be a problem if people are allowed to edit titles.

Are comments marked in some way to show when edited like reddit was?

Are titles?

Like could I write a post/comment “how often do you call your parents” and after everyone comments, once a week, once a day, oh god never, etc,

Edit the post/comment to say “how often do you eat poop”

And then sit back and chuckle softly to myself? Or would it say *(edited)

It should.

Edit: edit check

I’m on lemmy.world and I can see the time and date your comment was posted and same for edited.

More than half of my titles and descriptions have typos in it so it’s a blessing

You can also add your personal text in a text box when you create link posts, another thing you can’t do in reddit.
