Oddbean new post about | logout
 This might be a dumb question since I haven't been following NIPs lately, but wouldn't it be cool if there was an edit feature to tell clients to replace an old note with a new note on their user interface?

It wouldn't *actually* delete or edit the original note of course but if many clients listen to that then at least in terms of what most users will see, the note will have been edited. Or, clients could show the edited version and then also have a small "show original" button to see the original version.

Can anyone chime in and say why this wouldn't work or why it's way more complicated than this description to do in practice? I'm curious.
