this is my favorite thing. choice quotes:
“It’s not funny to me anymore that they are the way they are on Hexbear. Now it is just crushing sadness.”
“What the heck is this about the “yellow snow” figures and peeing their pants? This is either a Hexbear person writing up creative fiction, or else something real that the Hexbear admins quickly edited or something. This is a really bizarre.”

No, it’s not possible to edit someone else’s post on Lemmy as a platform. We can’t even mark a post as NSFW for content warning tags.
The only things we can do to a post that you can’t do as a user are to remove it or to purge it, which removes it from the modlog as well.
We generally only purge posts that contain content that we don’t want stored on our servers. Usually this is someone’s accidentally or foolishly posted personal information, but there have been cases where we’ve purged illegal/reprehensible content like gore or fictional sexual content depicting minors.
The Lemmy devs were very adamant that they never want that as a thing during their AMA earlier this year, just uninformed users being uninformed and jumping to weird conclusions for some reason
then how come all my posts are terrible, explain that
Can’t you edit a post with a
magnetized needle and a steady handPgAdmin?Getting into the server room in the subterranean Hexbear compound in the Pyrenees has a 96 hour countdown timer and requires 4 different physical keys carried by admins who live on separate continents.
Boy was I embarrassed when I left my keys in there.
Anyone with access to the database could do that but it won’t federate
so it’s just Phil bucket fucker talking out his ass again
