Apparently editing a post on disconnects it from it's replies. Is this by accident (aka a bug) or by design (to make sure the replies always fit or something)? Asking @FediTips and everyone else

@Flominator @FediTips @DanKen certainly true of "delete and redraft" but sounds like a bug for edit?

Jeah, i've noticed that, too - for some reason or another, i didn't have the option of editing on my Instance, i only had "delete and redraft".

Must have changed the last few weeks.

@DanKen

If your server was running a very old version of Mastodon but then updated it, that might be why "Edit" wasn't there before.

@Flominator

Editing a post using "edit" does not disconnect it from its replies.

It sounds like you are using "delete and redraft" instead of edit?

I just noticed, that the edit isn't federated. I have to open the post in the original served to see it.

@voks @FediTips I think that's more of a timing/caching issue.

Edits do federate but it can sometimes take a while for it to spread to other servers. Usually it happens within a few minutes.
