Just stumbled upon this. Is this a new "feature" or has it always been like that? Github repository members can EDIT PEOPLE'S WORDS at their will. The only visual cue for that is the same boring gray "edited" that appears when you edit the post yourself, and there's no way for us to see the original post and what was taken out/added in.
This specific example I found is harmless, but knowing Github (one of the first relevant tech companies to hire pink-haired landwhales to censor stuff), it's obvious why that option is there.

The Stack sites have the same capabilities. e.g. Stack Overflow, etc
To be fair removing the credentials of people to prevent personal attacks and shit like that isn't a bad use for that. It's also clearly marked as edited.

Stackexchange is basically a technical questions and answers wiki. It's different from editing Github issues because people are often invited to post their complaints, opinions, suggestions and other subjective things there.

It's clearly marked as edited the same way as when you edit the post yourself. How often have hovered that word to see who edited it?

The guy who edited the post specifically mentioned the reasoning behind it in the next post.
If someone edited one of your posts all you'd have to do is posted a follow up comment about it and everyone would know.

Are you full autistic? "They can edit your posts, so if you realize they did it, you can just make a new post about it, so they can edit it too".

If they keep editing your posts it just becomes more obvious. You could also file a bug report asking for the person to be removed to make it really visible. You could also post on other sites where they can't edit. The owner of the repo likely wouldn't just edit your posts for no reason though,
