 I found an issue. Cannot delete posts. 
 Feature not a bug  
 I disagree. Users should have some way of signaling that they no longer support a particular note for whatever reason. It's unfair to have no way of removing a note or adding updated context to it. 
 Some clients already provide this option, such as nostr:nprofile1qqs24yz8xftq8kkdf7q5yzf4v7tn2ek78v0zp2y427mj3sa7f34ggjcpzamhxue69uhhv6t5daezumn0wd68yvfwvdhk6tcppemhxue69uhkummn9ekx7mp0qyg8wumn8ghj7mn0wd68ytnddakj703s8dt editing feature.  
 You can go back to any note from any time and edit it everywhere? 
 Yup. You can also request deletion but not all relays support it. 
 Well, that's cool. I think most people probably mean that they want this implemented somehow at the protocol level where relays have to respect it if they want to get notes from a particular user. I imagine something like a setting that let's me not transmit to relays that haven't adopted the enforcement mechanism 
 I could manually choose relays, but that isn't real enforcement. 
 Replying to a previous posted note with clarification is a way of adding context.  I enjoy screen captures of posts that big shots put out on x and later deleted.  Shows the character of the people influencing others.  Your notes can be saved by anyone with or without the memory hole button.  

'no delete' as a feature not a bug.   
 No ragrets! 
 Yeah, that sounds great until you realize that your reply is lost in the replies and doesn't really add context for that reason. This has already been written about by @rabble and he makes better points. 
 It's neither a feature nor a bug.

 Depends on the client. 
 It should be a NIPS standard for relays to respect note edits and deletions if it isn't already. 
 Delete this note 
 You mean you can't self censor? 
 I saw a good essay covering this topic by @rabble 
 Delete this. 
 #nostr is not for beginners 
 Nostur app do ⚡️ 
 I use Nos Social to delete. Installed on iOS via Test Flight as it’s in beta, but has proven enjoyable for certain features like…. DELETE post and comments. 
 Yep this is my single biggest issue with Nostr.
