Why YSK: You might be used to Reddit where you can’t edit titles. This is important both for the errant poster, but also for the person coming from ages in the future who might stumble upon it.

    I don’t think it’s necessary or even good to have that kind of messages which are either very recent (ninja-edits) or have very few upvotes, engagement, etc, at least for a day or so. At least not a prominent message.

    All the concerns, after all, are about swicharoos, and if noone has yet seen the post, is it really a swicharoo? We should rather incentivise people to edit bad titles to get rid of titlegore etc and “delete, repost” aka the reddit solution isn’t exactly elegant either.
