Summary
When you edit a post to remove the URL (like if you don't want to post to be hidden due to an older post with the same URL), the URL is only removed on your home instance but not the community's instance. Edits to the body text do federate properly, I even did both in the same edit operation.
Steps to Reproduce
- Make post with a URL to remote community
- Edit post to remove URL
- Load up remote instance and see the URL is still there
Technical Details
Example

You can see an edit was able to change the URL but not remove the URL. The home instance shows the URL removed.
