This issue has bitten me several times. It was a problem in 0.6.0 and maybe earlier, and it is present in 0.6.1.

I'll make an edit to fix a couple of typos that I saw immediately after posting, and then I'll see something else or want to add some more context. So I'll edit the post again, but this edits the contents of the original post, therefore I put back in all my typos! (And lose anything else I added in my first edit.)

When it first happened, I thought I was going crazy and ended up going back and forth, fixing the same few typos over and over while adding more content! ๐Ÿ˜‚

For a test, I'm going to edit this post to add the text, "first edit". Then I'm going to edit it again after 10 seconds to add the words "second edit".

Second edit.


Third edit:

Now that I manually refreshed, I can see "second edit", and when I edit the post, those words are there, but "first edit" is gone.

Here's a screenshot of my post immediately after adding the first edit:

You can see that it does not contain the words "first edit" at the bottom.

I do, too, now, but I feel we shouldn't have to. Clicking "Edit" should at least request the newest version if the post doesn't refresh automatically. But I really think it should.
