  "textContent": "I think it’s the best solution.\n\nIf you’re using Signal then I would assume you have some grasp on personal responsibility regarding handling your own data.\n\nI think it also subtly promotes transparency and trust to the recipient in showing your mistakes and corrections, rather than the sometimes ominous “edited”.\n\nI also like that they give you the option to delete the entire message and start again if it’s really a problem.\n\nBut 99% of the time it will be typos and readability fixes that people edit messages for.\n\nI edit my comments on this forum often because I’m impatient (case in point: I typed “inpatient”) and don’t proof-read enough lol. I appreciate that this forum sometimes asks for a reason why you’re editing, because I never really thought about what that could imply to the reader.\n\nTL;DR I think it’s the best option.\n\nMy backup solution would be “undo send”, that we have on email clients. But that would make instant messaging slow as balls.",
