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 March 2023.

It still counts as a deletion even if some trace is left saying e.g. "[this comment was removed]"

Don't think there's this yet, but we do have hide comment

@firstuserhere That only seems to apply to comments on markets that you yourself created. If you comment on a market that wasn't created by you, you have no control over the comment visibility.

How does this resolve if the market creator is able to delete other people's comments, but they can't delete their own?

How about if we can't delete our comments, but we can edit them?

@IsaacKing

This is only about deleting your own comments, I'll make another market about deleting other people's comments. I'll update the title here to clarify.

Editing comments doesn't count, I have another market for that here:
