The community should know when the content is materially altered.

in your opinion it is right, in my opinion it is wrong.

"more than any other online forum would do" - still does not mean it is right

"super labor intensive to boot" - it should be in the CMS code to show a flag if "edited".

got it. Makes sense.

- "you expect"- wrong! - at no point did i express my "expectation". I was voicing my opinion on how I think the UX should work for this use case

- "instead of the way it already worked when you joined." Just because it worked this way does not mean it is right.

- "HN -> HN's rules." Yes, Captain Obvious. this does not mean their rules make sense and certainly does not mean a user voicing an opinion on how the rules should be changed is entitled.

why would i want HN to hold my hand?

ok. what did you disagree with if not my point? I do not care in the least bit about HN's karma

exactly

does not mean it is right

in the comment? how many people would read his comment versus the subject line?

Also the fact that he can fundamentally change what a user posts and then choose whether or not to disclose it in comment section is a flaw.

add an indicator to indicate the admin changed what I (@ugwigr) posted. Materially changing the content your users post is wrong.

the HN admin changed the link I posted. this is unethical - You are fundamentally changing what I posted. As a product manager here is a better solution - A.) Add a clear indicator that admin changed the link to redirect B.) Delete my link and post yours.

Shawdow changing what users post is wrong.

looks like a legendary class

I really enjoyed doing this interview
