So in truth, I should have checked there before posting here.
I suppose this is a good lesson to learn, but now I'm unsure if it's best to remove the post altogether or leave it to disallow others to repeat my goof?

Posting here is totally fine. Not everybody has a codeberg account or has any idea what git is. Feel free to ask away wherever makes the most sense to you.

If you do feel like poking around in the code, you might want to hop on chat.piefed.social or matrix to chat through questions or issues you might have.

Hmm, this could be a way to update notifications if the post or comment is edited as well.

The source code.

There is a nice codebase overview by the dev, so you should be able to find where that is being handled, unless it's a frontend thing, at which point you'd need to inspect the frontend code and/or the API.

Would a python review be necessary or nahh?
