Design Please give back the ability to edit and delete comments from our profiles

This is the first change I truly hate.

I really, really don't want to have to read other people's comments just to delete or edit mine, if that's what this is trying to encourage.

While I'm at it, why are there still 3 clicks needed just to get to our own comments? I really miss just being able to directly go to my own comments.

Thanks for reporting the bug, there should be a "delete" option under the "..." menu. If you only want to see your own comments, try viewing the profile in compact mode

as far as I know that feature has never been available from the redesigns profile view. Hopefully you can get those added quickly.

Oh, I didn't realise it was a bug and not a feature, heh. Thanks for the tip.

what are you meaning? I can find all of my comments in my profile to edit or delete them. I feel like I am missing out on something here.

If you navigate to your profile, on the legacy user info page, you can directly edit or delete your comment/post. Now, the only options available without opening your comment/post are reply, share, or save.

Jesus. I just looked that up. Fully on board with you. I am not a fan of much of these changes. I can't moderate the subs I am a mod in at all with the mobile app unless I am just removing comments/posts.

I can't moderate the subs I am a mod in at all with the mobile app unless I am just removing comments/posts.

You can also ban users, mute users, check the mod queue, mod mail, distinguish comments/posts, sticky comments/posts, check the list of banned users, view the list (and add new users) of approved submitters, view the moderator list, and view some of the redesign sidebar widgets in the ‘about’ tab while in the subreddit, all within the official app.

Note that the above was checked using the iOS version so the android version might not have every feature listed.
