Hi! (*・ω・)ノ
I think it would be immensely useful if we were able to edit or delete a comment after it has been made. Not being able to correct a comment can lead to numerous issues. For example, if someone posts an image and would like to credit its original creator, but forgets to do so in their original comment, they will now have to make an entire second comment to do so, which would then be merged with the first. Not only would it be less convenient then simply editing the original comment, but in the case that the comments do not merge, the second one might be missed by another user. If someone wanted to correct something in the original post as opposed to adding onto it, to correct a typo for example, this would be entirely impossible to do in the current state of the site. At worst this would cause a bit of an "oops" moment for the original commenter, and at worst it could cause misunderstandings and conflict among users should the typo be... unfortunate. Not only that, but because this feature is so common on other websites people who join here may find it a bit jarring to suddenly no longer have access to it, causing dissatisfaction among those who might otherwise enjoy the site.
In short, not being able to edit or erase comments can be very inconvenient to some people and potentially cause some very undesirable changes. As such, I would very much appreciate if you would give some thought to making a change. Thank you for your consideration! (* ^ ω ^)
