Do you know that you can edit the title to fix the typo?

Another small quality-of-life feature that's nice about Lemmy.

It will 100% be abused though, and it will probably/hopefully get changed at some point. It was never a technical reason to not allow edits of titles but rather a social one.

Just imagine some troll posting "what is your favorite color?" And people reply with "red", "yellow", "black" etc.. and then they edit the title to "In your oppinion what color of people should we get rid off?"

Would be nice if it was an option that could be enforced on a community level.

I feel like an option to edit it for an amount of time would be neat. Like after ~1 hour you can’t edit the title anymore or something. That’ll prevent trolls, and will get people enough time to realize and fix their spelling mistakes.

That could be a workaround. Also maybe include a "edited" text or icon

Jesus, did not see that coming. But good point.
