NO

Many highly informative discussions happen in the per-market comment sections. However sometimes a user leaves a comment that they think better of later, and wish to remove.

Will Manifold fix this problem by adding the ability to delete previously-posted comments? This market will resolve to YES if a button or other interface change makes it possible to delete your own comments by the end of 2024

It still counts as a deletion even if some trace is left saying e.g. "[this comment was removed]". It doesn't count as deleted if other users can click a button to reveal that comment (i.e. hide comment functionality doesn't count)

Can't you edit any past comment to [deleted]?

@TheAllMemeingEye Yes, but the comment is still there and people can see the edit history.

So if you post something embarrassing, there's no real way to persistently remove it.

@Agh How do you view the edit history?

[deleted]

@TheAllMemeingEye All I see is this

@TheAllMemeingEye you need to reload the page and then you can click on (edited) to see the history

@Agh Ah, I see it now, thanks

I'm going to try deleting this

@RS hmm no dice
