When you are iterating $user->posts it works because you are accessing each post and rendering it.

But in your posts.edit are using $user->posts->about, it doesn't know which post's about.

Solution: You have to iterate all posts of that user like the working code you have given.

.....
@foreach($user->posts as $post)
<label for="about" class="col-md-4 col-form-label text-md-right">{{ __(' post about') }}</label>
<div class="col-md-6">
    <input id="about" type="text" class="form-control @error('about') is-invalid 
    @enderror" name="about"  value="{{ old('about') ?? $post->about }}" 
    required autocomplete="about" autofocus>
    @error('about')
    <span class="invalid-feedback" role="alert">
    <strong>{{ $message }}</strong>
    </span>
    @enderror
</div>
@endforeach
