RE: What to do if you want to delete a post?
I just saw the "topic" can't be changed with edit, so my technique would cause some "downvotes" I guess... of course maybe less than leaving it unchanged...
The dev's could easily change that and let us edit the topic/TAGS also, for more reasons than just deleting/hiding a post
Yes, being able to edit the topic and tags may be a good idea.
Contact the developers to Steemit because this is a design flaw which a competitor can take advantage of. A Steemit clone with delete functions and better access control would definitely catch on. Steemit is very nice and a breakthrough but at the same time permanent blockchain storage of all posts seems wasteful.
Why not use a simple DHT with permissions?
Thanks for the ideas. This post is no big deal and I don't mind it being permanent, but I thought I'd ask out of curiosity.
