Red Alert: Substack Does Not Allow Me To Modify My Own Comments Even on My Site
What's happening?

When I click on the three dots below my comments, I am treated as if I was a commenter:
I can Pin, Remove, Ban or suspend, of View subscriber details, but cannot edit on my Substack.
On other Substacks, I can choose Reply, Delete, or Collapse below my comments.
What is happening?

So would a lot of other things that Substack lacks, but I'm not holding my breath.
