On Reddit it is (or at least was) considered polite if you edit your posts to correct spelling errors or clarify something that you added ‘EDIT: whatever I did’ to the bottom of your post. Is that the done thing here? Should it be?

Whether on Reddit or a pre-Reddit forum, I usually never bothered to add an ‘ETA:’ footer for small spelling or grammar changes, or for larger changes edited in immediately after posting (as an author I don’t exactly have the most ordered thought process…). Anytime I added information more than a few minutes after posting – for example, providing citation links or adding nuance to something that didn’t come across as clearly as I intended – I would usually provide a footer summarizing those changes for posterity. Unfortunately, reddit being reddit the discussion would usually have moved far past my post at that point.
