One of the things I like about the underlying QOTO system is the editing function (delete & re-draft).
.
Sometimes my writing looks different to me when I re-read my own words a day later. I want to change words. I feel a need to re-position sentences and paragraphs.
.
Maybe the simple fact that I'm doing this public editing is a good thing. Maybe it's a constructive contribution to QOTO precisely because others can see what I'm doing.
.
My work-in-progress writing practice could be construed as helpful to others -- maybe witnessing the way I edit my posts could help someone else re-think the way he/she edits his/her own prose?

QOTO = Question Others to Teach Ourselves?

@chikara I actually don't like edits; I understand that some people might write something the wrong way, but that an inherently human attribute, the fallibility of man, I don't like the idea of erasing that and editing our posts to try and be perfect.

That said, I feel like deleting and redrafting content is defferent than editing like you can on @gab or @facebook@bots.tinysubversions.com
