Yeah but, what did the original comment say?

In the past 24 hours or so, Steemit Inc have made another small tweak to the interface and highlighted top level posts and comments that have been edited.

I think this is a nice little tweak, despite the fact that I occasionally write shit that I would like to disappear the next day. This doesn't happen to much though thankfully, and unless there is a SMT truth coin, divulging all the drunken comments left on the chain since its inception, I'm not too fussed.

So my question is today, now that this feature which has clearly been super easy to implement and not in any way affecting the delivery time of SMTS at all is in place, how about a link from the 'edited' to a place where the original comment can be viewed?

!dramatoken ?

Yeah maybe, and maybe 99% of the time it's a small-time edit to a comment with a spelling mistake or a grammar fail. But, there could at times be drunken irrational gold behind that edit, and I'm a nosey fucker.

So how about it Steemit inc., is there a place you can link to that will present the people with a true history?


Next month I'm going to the UK. If you asked me how I feel about this right now I would down my drink and ask you to buy another. But there is some light, probably.

Goodnight lovely people xxxxx

Sort:  

If the error is so little like a mispell or misplaced alphabet, no need to edit but being labelled edited means no bad and will not affect anything. If everyone knows it was edited, what would happen?

Just last night I ranted in a reply and decided to edit. :) lol.

If anyone sees it that's cool, but it was kind of pissy and misdirected. so, eh.. blockchain pros and cons!

!dramatoken

It's good you considered the real value of this feature though.

It could well have f all value most of the time, but if there has been an edit, maybes people (all 300 of us), would like to see the original 😁

Maybe you were here, but when Dan quit he made a post.

Later he edited it out.

The result was hilarious, everyone and their brother posted "Dan's Deleted Post".

:) Sometimes it backfires.

I just went in three times in 30 minutes and edited typos in my freewrite. I think someone should go study that in a valuable use of time.

Even if you may not seem so convinced about it, it's good to hear that you're going to the UK, I guess the first beer's on you?

You can always count on Eric to talk about beer 😜 even in the darkest of days LOL.

Cheers man. Yeah not convinced by there are positives. I'm hoping for a few 'welcome home' beers from others!

The light of going to the UK is that you'll be close to your daughter. Another light is that the summer is coming (as opposed to the winter is coming, THE winter is over...booh, snif) and that even the UK becomes more bearable in summer time. And a third light would be that it's temporary...

Those are 3 bright lights :)

Yup! That's me, always here to shine a light on a grey situation 😉.

Would be nice to see Pinned Post functionality with Steemit next after edited

Something like what has happened on the trending page, but for your own feed?

Yes I wanted to be able to pinn my own post within my own blog

I have a workaround and created a post called 'profile' with the first tag as 'index', and have linked it to my blog in settings.

The post itself needs updating and I don't think it gets many visitors but it could work for you?

I just checked and this looks really nice

I'm sure this might become handy some day

Something like what has
Happened on the trending page,
But for your own feed?

I'm a bot. I detect haiku.

@abh12345, Yes, it's always good to have history of what we posted at first and sometimes it's a good way to deep dive into our mistakes.

Hope that this upcoming journey will bring more success and growth in your life brother.

Have a great time ahead and stay blessed.

I sometimes get notifications that someone had deleted or edited a comment before I have seen i the original comment and I must admit i am nosey as well and always wonder what was changed LOL

Yes steemworld is good for small edits but it would be nice to see the full history with a quick link from edited :D

Yeah that wouldbe a cool thing to have :)

I hadn’t noticed which shows how little I use it these days! Not a bad change... Wouldn’t history be on the chain no matter the edits?

Wouldn’t history be on the chain no matter the edits?

Yes it's all there, just needs surfacing for the nosy people :)

is there a place you can link to that will present the people with a true history?

I remember we had -phist.steemdata.com- and -steemviz.com/deleted- for that, but looks they are both dead now

Yeah I knew we had something in the past, a shame they are no longer with us.

I rather see a whole UI fix, it’s like the late 90’s up in here! Someone give me that drama token! 😂😂😂😂

Haha! I just sent my son a @tasteem post to look at and he said, "Finally! Something that does not look like crap on steemit!"

Nothing wrong with late 90's, well, at least as far as music goes :D

90’s music is just the best lol
