Is there any indication for edited comments? (kbin.social)

I was looking at a comment I left earlier today (several hours earlier) and realized I made a typo, and went to edit it. I'm used to Reddit putting a little asterisk next to the comment's timestamp to indicate that it was edited, but I'm not seeing anything like this on Kbin. Is this something that's tracked somewhere for users to see, or possibly something that we might see get added in as a feature in the future?

Ahh, that makes sense! I'm still holding out for Artemis to release for Kbin. Hopefully they'll have this added somehow, too!

Typing this from the (closed) Artemis beta. So far, there is no edit indicator. But given that it doesn't even currently have the capacity to edit, it's not surprising that there are currently other things higher up the priority list than showing when something was last edited.

Also: Kbin doesn't currently have an API for clients, so Artemis has to work with scraping at the moment. That means the last-edited info is probably inaccessible to Artemis atm even if it were the highest priority right now.
