If Staff ever implements the editing method from Mastodon, we'd be fucked.
Currently, on Tumblr, if you edit a post, all the former reblogs stay exactly the same.
On Mastodon, editing a post changes all the boosts and simply notifies the people who interacted with the post prior to the edit.
Now, can you imagine that on Tumblr?
Surely giving the OP the ability to edit their post after hundreds of thousands of people have reblogged it would be a perfectly balanced feature that I'm sure the Tumblr' userbase has never abused before.
Ao3 is actually massively culturally important and very very good at being what it is. I’m so serious when I say that ao3 needs to be protected as the anti censorship, by fans for fans, nonprofit, volunteer run, expertly designed archival site that it is.

Small psa: Generational divides are fake, people can’t be sorted neatly into millennials, gen z, babyboomer, etc. Age is a gradient and people are individuals. Young kids are gonna do dumb stuff because they’re kids and the world is so fucking hard for little social mammal creatures with overgrown brains to figure out. Older little social mammal creatures are going to get disoriented and nervous as the way things worked when they were young are no longer the way things work. Everyone has been the former, everyone will be the latter. Be kind to each other.
Don’t eat detergent.
