Editing posts - possible?
Hi, I recently started to use D*. After making a couple of posts I noticed a typo in one of them that I want to fix. However, I do not see a way to do that. Tutorials at http://diasporial.com/tutorials were no help. Am I missing something?
Thanks.

@alexanderzatko, I'm not a developer. I'm just a human. Whether or not I'm normal is a matter for debate...

Should diaspora* aim to support post editing? Closed Sat 30 Aug 2014 9:08PM
Leaving out the technical details and talking purely about whether the network needs a "Post edit" feature. The edit could be for a short period of time only, permanent, versioned, non-versioned, etc - whatever that counts as modifying a post after it has been published.
YES - Editing posts should be possible
NO/BLOCK - Editing posts should not be possible

I think it would be useful. Tent has an idea of letting posts have revisions, like a mini git repo that grabs the latest version of a post when an update is pushed out and federated. Could cause us to work more on our federation system.

Though it could be technically exhausting, it is a clear handicap to not be able to correct posts

Content is the property of the originator and they should be able to do what they want with it.

Simple. It's not only found in all of the major social networks, and not only is it technically feasible, but it's also one of the most requested features from users that comes up every time.

Better it comes with versions too.

Yup revisions will be better. If I post, I own it, so would like to edit it.
