What happened to the edit segment tool?

The OCD gremlin in me really enjoyed cleaning up bad segments. Reporting the duplicates, editing the starting position from someone’s favorite parking spot… But I can’t find that tool anymore and there are still some simple edits that can be done for example:

the start of this northbound segment requires entry from an unmarked trailhead at a ditch further up a paved road with no bike lane:

while the southbound has a simple, clearly marked, and established start + finish on the established trail that runs along a major acequia (irrigation canal) without diversion.

@THENEWMEXICAN I'm not new to Strava by any means and I have been creating and looking for ways to edit segments for a decade or more.  There has never been a way to edit other people's segments.  Period.

I agree.  Having the option to tweak segment created by others, mainly the finish point, would be hugely helpful. I know of several that end in intersections or after stop signs.  Rules could be implemented that would reject major changes.

I have created quite a lot of Segments and I like to think most have been done carefully.  I don't want some random stranger editing them to suit their own preferences.
