Re: your edit

If you’re making an edit to correct an error in a comment, it may be best to just strikethrough the erroneous part of the text and clarify with an edit message. That way you probably won’t get downvoted as much once you’ve realized your mistake, and the clarification doesn’t get buried by downvotes either. You can strikethrough on Lemmy by putting two tildes ~~ before the text and then two tildes ~~ after the text, ~~like this~~.

to your point, i learned today in an earlier post that ~~strikethrough~~ formatting doesn't work if you're using old.lemmuy.world

Hmmm, that’s odd. Here’s the old Lemmy Dev’s GitHub and his (inactive?) Lemmy account is @[email protected] if you want to suggest changes. For now, there are websites that strikethrough text for you, though less perfectly.

it's such a glaring issue that i'd just feel like a karen for pointing it out. by far, it's still my preferred interface.
