So, I will say this is kind of a peeve of mine about server-based
discussion systems (whether web or client like Slack/Discord): allowing
people to edit messages, especially after people have replied to them,
is a bad idea. Person 1 says "we should do XYZ", somebody replies "no
XYZ is bad", and person 1 can go change their original message to say
something completely different.
Hmm, interesting, seems like the platform is able to do a message based
diff,
so if you edit your message, history is actually visible!
See for example this message from some of Matt's links I got open
https://discussion.fedoraproject.org/t/future-of-encryption-in-fedora-desktop-variants/80397/65
There is a pencil with a number, click that, you can see a diff.
So I don't think that I have to be that concerned that someone will want
to radically change their messages.
It kind of goes back to who "owns" (and I don't mean in the legal sense)
the content. When the content is held on a server, the server owner has
an editorial control that can be problematic.
Fixing typos sounds nice, but... just don't make typos, or proofread. :)
