We choose to experiment with post edits and do other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard.

If we want better alternatives we need to take risks and accept when they fail. 🚀

@pixelfed Please add ability to add location in these post edits! :)

@pixelfed If you want to improve edits then include a reference to the id of the previous post in the new edited one. That will make things much easier on the server.

Right now when edited posts arrive they appear as near duplicates but with no connection, so that it's difficult to algorithmically guess whether the user intended to edit or merely write a similar post.
