Yes I hear you. I think as a community wide consensus ( by that I mean to say over the years of developing towards what users of all permission levels have pitched a complaint want or need about ) -- the time restrictions came to play.
I remember back when -- someone would run back and change whgat they said after being called out on it lmao -- uhhm yea, like that, but with every restriction comes , or should i say goes some sort of freedom.
For now , one thing i can suggest is to change your view settings, which can place the latest post at the top , thats if you're not using the 'goto last post' features and such, so not sure how that will work out, likely just the same.
Again , editing posts after a longer period of time is in a sense reasonable, at the same time , terrible for SEO in some instances all the same.
None the less I'll being this up on the backside and see if it grows - fair enough ?
