Yeah, I have read some people here and there saying that you are welcome to submit a new one.
It doesn't make sense to me, when I got something halfway wrong in the previous one.

This is not yet possible, but in the interim you can ask a moderator on Discord to flag for removal. I'll keep this open until the feature is fully supported.

why we still can't do this ourselves is rather perplexing... please allow us to edit/delete our own reports already

Seconded, it is most definitely needed

Maybe you should consider making Protondb open-source, so everyone can contribute and distribute features faster. As for now it's lack of features makes it harder to find things user wants.

I recently made a report for a game saying it was entirely broken.

The issue was down to my user error.

The game was on an NTFS drive and I didn't realise, I recently learned that proton is mostly or entirely incompatible with NTFS

I then went to correct the report, but found I could not edit or delete it.
I have now submitted a new report with the corrected rating but the old report sticks around providing inaccurate information, this is not a good user experience IMO.

If you worry about people absuing edits, conder providing a public edit history similar to edits of github comments.
