YSK: On Lemmy the title, URL, and content of a post are all editable after posting.

Why YSK: On reddit only the body was editable, so by knowing this you won't need to delete or resubmit due to wrong URL, typo, etc.

I've noticed some comments/posts have the number of up/down shown but not others. I just wrote it off as a bug.

I’m pretty sure it’s an admin option in instances to enable or not things like downvotes, or show the up and down numbers, or just the total etc.

I wonder if it's just that they only show the two numbers if a comment has downvotes? It would be a weird UI choice but I can see it happening, since technically you're not missing any info, it's just that the user doesn't know about the information they're not missing unless they understand this detail. It would be clearer if they were shown on all posts.

EDIT: Yeah that's the answer, look, you can test it by downvoting your own comment (or I guess someone else's but don't do that you meanie poos):

EDIT 2: This is now old info, it looks like this has been changed in the latest update lol. Fast-changing times we're living in.
