That way, if somebody in the future, who reads only the edited version of the comment/post/thread sees it, they can understand that perhaps other comment chains based off of the initial error are not non sequiturs. It also shows that you are humble and admit a mistake, and make a correction, which imo, are good things to showcase... as opposed to doing a 'stealth edit', which leaves no obvious signs of what the original comment was, in the comment itself. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 1 child comment replies: [–] ivanafterall@lemmy.world 3 points 10 months ago Christopher Lee.
