What does ETA even stand for in the context of edited comments?

ETA: It means "edit to add"

It's supposed to be 'edited to add'.

Yes, it's beyond dumb and I've only seen new people or women weirdly enough use it.

I've always wondered if it was a Tumblr thing.

More like where did women learn such weird habits when they quarantined themselves on the internet before getting brave enough to go elsewhere?

It's Tumblr right? Either that or they're non English speaking and ETA isn't used in other languages due to being an acronym.
