Often, its asked what the fediverse or lemmy needs more of in terms of content, but are there any specific features or functionality you really feel are lacking?

    Ninja edits. A grace period where you can edit your comment without it showing it was edited. This is usually for typos and formatting mistakes that you notice right after posting your comment. A minute will do.

      There’s a last-edited time, which I think should provide a superset of that information.

      considers

      Maybe have clients/Web UI more-clearly highlight if a response predated the last parent edit, which is I think the case where that really becomes an issue.

      Honestly, I haven’t actually seen anyone involved in bad-faith edits in conversations here. I’ve even seen people regularly thank people who provide corrections before correcting their post to credit the correction. Obviously, that doesn’t mean that it’s true everywhere or will last, but from a community standpoint, that’s one area where I’ve been pretty happy with people here.
