Sure there are. If you are on the web client, there's a three-dot-button below your comment. Press that and a popup opens up, where you can select "Edit" and there you go: ninja edit.

So according to my quick test here, my ninja edit registered as a regular edit. Not sure if this differs on different instances?

It only ever shows the timestamp of the last time you edited your post. And the post first containing the word "admins" and then "devs" does have the "edited" mark next to it. We don't know when or how often it was edited, only when the last edit was made.

ninja edit doesn't seem edited at all.

Keep in mind that edits can take different amount of time to federate to different instances.

Yeah, and sometimes they don't reach different instances at all.
