This is nothing - one day I should put together a list of my editing errors, including the one where I somehow made my entire edit with a non-Latin keyboard layout on without even noticing (thus filling some poor person's question with random characters), and the one where I replaced a link to an article about some Ubuntu thing with one to a video clip from The Labyrinth due to not checking what was in my clipboard XD | |
| Sep 6, 2021 at 7:10 | comment | added | Zanna Mod | @BeastOfCaerbannog ahaaa that helps to understand why the edit came to be accidentally suggested - I guess OP wanted to copy and paste that text from the answer into the question to give an update on what happened when they tried to follow the advice. That text in the question should probably be formatted as a quote - I'll do that | |
| Sep 6, 2021 at 7:03 | comment | added | BeastOfCaerbannog | @Zanna You're probably right! It seemed to me that this was the OP's suggestion that they later wanted to remove, as it exists in both the question and the answer. | |
| Sep 6, 2021 at 3:09 | comment | added | Zanna Mod | @BeastOfCaerbannog OP's suggestion accidentally removed the update #1 part I think | |
| Sep 5, 2021 at 18:13 | comment | added | Journeyman Geek | "Be careful" kinda works. Practically, one of the advantages of the suggested edit, and psudo-version control of rollback is that its semi trivial to fix - so one or two oops is unlikely to have a lasting effect | |
| Sep 5, 2021 at 18:03 | comment | added | BeastOfCaerbannog | Why the revisions look as if heynnema had "Update #1" (OP's edit) in their answer in the first place? | |
