Does anyone use the #edit feature to tell jokes?
You can ask the question:
How many chickens does it take to tap dance on a sausage?
Then you get people to #favourite the #toot, then you can edit in the answer later on and it will appear in people's notifications.
@lydiaconwell Do edits appear in notifications?
Our Mastodon fork is a bit too old to see edits, so I wouldn't know.
@trinsec Well try favouriting the joke I've posted and we can test it.
@trinsec Just shut up and tell her you saw it. It will make her happy.
@josemanuel @trinsec It will make me happy.
@josemanuel @trinsec Did it work?
@lydiaconwell
Just favorited it. Still seeing the non-edited version.
@trinsec @josemanuel Didn't you get a notification of the edit?
@lydiaconwell
I don't even see an edit unless I visit your post on your instance's site. I faved after edit if you edited it, but I don't see an edited post either way. I seriously think our Mastodon fork can't handle edits. Yet. I'm gonna bug my admin.
@lydiaconwell Of course it did! Look, @trinsec, she did a Lydia! I better bookmark that post. It's part of Fedi history now.
(Which one was it again? The one about the sausage or the scarecrow one? Never mind. I'll bookmark both.)
@josemanuel @trinsec Sausage scarecrow history!
@josemanuel
Shut up yourself. :P
@trinsec Yeee---eeeeh
