Haha, this was just my mistake. I hit submit too quickly, by somehow managing to type like five keys wrong in a row. I then edited my message to correct the mistake. You can see that the message was edited in the upper right ("Edited") and click that link for an edit history.

Haha :D
Thanks for explanations.

It's about me:

One possible issue is that the "edited" text is pretty easy to miss. An easy fix would maybe be to make it more colorful.

@chad, do you have any thoughts this?

Personally, I'd probably prefer a slightly more visible indicator, but the default was this more subtle indicator and most of the other UIs I use a lot (Reddit, Facebook) have subtle links, so I took the lazy route and didn't swap it for something garish at the time.

Slightly prefer how it is now, which is 'available if you look for it'. The other design approach would be something under the copy, like a footer - such that you read the copy then you read that it was edited.

Sounds reasonable. Let's leave it for now and we can play with it if more users hit issues.

This is sort of an unusual case anyway since edits are normally minor, rather than "I forgot to type most of the text".
