Maybe there should be a maximum number of characters edited. If I have liked/retweeted a tweet, and its author then completely rewrites it,I would want my "engagement" eliminated.

- mnx 6y agono way to prevent just adding a 'not' while still allowing sensible editing.
- conradfr 6y agoAlso why not make editing available for n minutes? Perfect for typos.
- thomasahle 6y agoThat's probably an even better approach, though famous people may have a lot of engagements during that time. Maybe just make editing work like deletion/repost: Remove all likes a retweets. Then after n minutes it becomes an unattractive thing to do.
- user-the-name 6y agoBecause if you immediately notice it, delete and repost works just as well.
