When I first experienced this, I thought it was a technical hiccup or something.

When I got DARVO’d for it. I learned it was deliberate.

Now that I am witnessing someone do it to me as a nonmoderator & admin, I guess it's a client side exploit.

Any ideas?

On my client (Thunder) the comments you talk about show with an edit symbol, so maybe it's a UI bug, or instance specific bug

I assume it's a lemmy exploit, since the live one doesn't show it. And the Nazi one still doesn't.

Dude that second one wasn't edited, that was the whole joke.

Just checked on Thunder4🐁: no edit marks on both comments.

Found too Nazi left plenty of non marks too

Never seen it, but based on the architecture, they’d have to have control of a lemmy server or an email server used as part of the publishing process to do it.

wait, explain the email method.

I seriously doubt NewNewAugustEast controls lemmy.zip, which is why I made the post in the first place. I linked on the main post a live url of edits having been done live. The archiveh ones are clear on the last “it.”
