Oops... Duplicate post (where is delete?)

in #splinterlands4 years ago (edited)

I am scratching my head here... Where can you delete a post? I did a search for "hive.blog delete post" and just found tons of blogposts with 'delete' placeholder text.

https://hive.blog/created/delete-post

Anyone got a fix for me?

You can't delete something from the blockchain, once it is posted, it's on there forever. But it is a valid question, why they haven't implemented a delete by "marking" a post as deleted and then just not displaying it anymore..

What you can do right now is edit a post and it will show the updated text. That's the reason you are seeing so many posts with a "delete" placeholder text.

@unitqm Actually you can delete a post (at least at https://ecency.com/). But I guess in the background they are actually doing what I wrote in my previous comment:

how do you insert a gif here on hive in post or comment?
