Being in a state of incomplete understanding might be a good opportunity to think about how things might be made easier for future contributors.

I got lost in the post controller and model

It's easy to think that Collab should be reserved for well formed questions, and vague statements like this should go to a discussion in chat (Discord currently). However, I suspect that there is benefit to asking a question on Collab along the lines of "I'm not sure what I'm stuck on, but here's what I've tried". Then an "answer" doesn't need to be a full solution to the overall task, but might just be a hint or a next step.

I personally find it difficult to tell whether my various confusions come from a general lack of understanding of Rails, or a lack of understanding of how QPixel specifically is doing something. I tend to want to fully understand first, and then write a self answered question on Collab, because otherwise how will I know how to phrase the question? I know that the imperfect wording I would have used before understanding would probably be a better match for what future contributors might search for though, so maybe I should get into a habit of posting questions early, when I'm not really sure what I want to ask.

I suppose I'm both suggesting Collab for you, and also asking whether you think that the approach I suggest is an acceptable use of Collab.

I thought this would be easy (we already have the logic for direct edits; how hard could it be to apply it to suggested edits too?), but I got lost in the post controller and model, sigh.
