How to fix Facebook's edit post option as it disappears

Facebook appears to have removed its option to edit posts in a major update.

Frustrated Facebook users took to Twitter to express their disgruntlement as the change means posts cannot be altered once published. Usually, to edit a post you've shared on Facebook you would:

1. Go to your post.
2. Click the three dots in the top right of the post.
3. Click the pencil icon
4. Edit Post.
5. Make your changes.
6. Click Save.
