. I was editing a comment. It became very big(more than 500 letters). And, I didn't know. I was clicking on Post button multiple although it wasn't updating. I thought it may be bug. Then, I r...
I have published this post in Unix and Linux StackExchange. I want to post it here as well (in Software Development Codidact), because it didn't get answers on U&L SE. I cannot delete my post...
I just found this user Olin Elthrop and read the profile description. I felt like I had to report it, since it may be considered trolling or insulting against another user Olin Lathrop (a high-re...
If one searches / filters result by a tag (by clicking on one of them) the all items in a list have a badge that indicates current category instead of correct one. For example, when I click on mvv...
There is reference to "positive reception rate" for posts in the discussion on how to earn some abilities, for example the Vote on Holds ability. What exactly does "positive reception" mean in thi...
When we write an answer we always have to take some lines from questions, comments and, other places. I was thinking if we could add some kind of floating button to the right bottom. When we expand...
U P D A T E: It looks like some changes have gone missing after the rollout; we're working on adding them back right now. See this answer for more information. We have deployed the new abilit...
I'm not entirely sure where they would go, but I think reactions should be in your profile activity in some way. I think reactions are most similar to votes so I would treat them the same. So do no...
I've noticed this both on mobile and on desktop, that in order to close a dropdown menu, you must click on the button that opened it. I think it would make for a much better user experience to be a...
I was reviewing a post when mistakenly, I flagged the post. I wanted to remove that flag, since I know that moderators would decline it. Since the flag was raised by mistake, it would be great if ...

Popup vs. Inline The box that pops up when starting a new Comment Thread is in the middle of the page and it is not movable. When writing a comment, unless it is very short, I often want to be...

I love the editor, it is so white and clean. I think the idea of having the title field at the bottom is genius. It lets you collect your thoughts and make a really meaningful title. I have a co...
I've looked around for information on an existing or planned public API for Codidact but I haven't yet found one. I'm not sure if this means it was decided not to include it in the MVP or if it exi...

On Outdoors there is blue icon that says what category a question is in when searching by tag. However when categories share the same tag set it will say that Q&A posts are in the Gear Recommen...
Sometimes, there are issues that should not be made public (for instance, issues relating to security or privacy) and as such should not be posted here on Meta. Given the potential severity of thos...
tl;dr According to this post, the div tag is not allowed, thus it's removed from posts. But it's not removed from the preview, and I believe both (the preview and the final saved post) should be c...
A bit over a year ago, I proposed to add a “reactions” like feature on Codidact, which would allow marking answers as “accepted”, “outdated” or “dangerous”, providing more detailed feedback to user...
I notice that a number is displayed as the hovertext / tooltip when hovering over the voting buttons and current score of a post. Would it be helpful for the hovertext to include a brief descriptio...
In the reference, Monica had said If you suspect voting fraud, please flag or use the "contact us" link. Moderators can't see who voted on what (even I can't), but there are people on the team w...

Update: The reputation number in the header has been added back again for the time being, until we have found a suitable solution. This is just a quick heads up, that you are, indeed, not crazy ...
Modular approach is generally good in the long run and I think that there are two "modules" to modern medicine: Non-invasive (doesn't include surgery) Invasive (includes surgery) I believe t...
I'd like to submit links to unanswered Codidact questions, to Reddit, in order to try to get them answered and popularize Codidact. Although some SubReddits forbid submitting a link already publis...
As Exhibit A, I present revision 2 of Switching to an admin user within Powershell SSH session on Power Users, and specifically its diff view against revision 1 of Stated Post. The post itself con...
The page describing the Vote on Holds ability, under "What does this ability allow me to do?", has what appears to be unrendered Markdown: The reasons for placing a post on hold vary from site t...
I noticed that the initial version of a question is missing in its history. The post Can we have a button to insert a table in posts? was asked on November 25, and on November 29 marked as [tag:st...
Please see point 1 below. The top of S.E. is much sprucer — just the logo. But Codidact has two additional rows — at least merge these rows? Moshi retorted #1 The first row is categories, which...
What's the limit of flag comment? I was testing by flagging in Dev server. I had flagged a comment using more than 30000 characters. I think it should be limited (maybe, 500 characters)
The latest update includes a few small changes of possible general interest: Moderators can now escalate flags to the admin team. If you have a flag that requires our attention, or if you wan...
Most of the sites are struggling to get questions and while it seems to me at least that more effort has been put into optimizing for the answerers than for the askers. To put it another way, ther...
It was written in Codidact Site Proposals page: If you've got a group or community looking for a site, we can host it for you. Post here to let us know and we'll discuss the details. Please read...
Has anyone like our founders thought of advertising Codidact.com on your vehicle, free of charge and voluntarily? Like on the side and on the back? I don't expect Codidact to pay you for this, but...
Update (2020-12-29): I've sent emails to everyone who is eligible to get a t-shirt or stickers. I'm sorry that it took a while, but you know, life happens. It's been an interesting year so far and ...
This looks similar to my previous bug report "Body is too short" error when posting middle-click-pasted answer with no changes, and I wouldn't be surprised if the fix is the same. When on the thre...
On some of our communities, it would be helpful to be able to label answers systematically: On Code Golf, by language. On Software Development, Power Users, or Linux Systems, by specific ...
I've stumbled upon links to Codidact questions on answers on SOME subreddits, but because Codidact is still little known and unsung, Redditors balk at clicking links to Codidact. OR other...
In the buttons below a Question/Answer, there is one for viewing its history: This is a feature request for adding a rollback feature to the history page of a question/answer, since the edits to...

Over on Software, Q&A and Code Review share the same tags. While this is really helpful since it makes tag parity easy, it also produces some weird behavior. For instance, at the moment the sit...
When posting my last question here, I noticed that I can't directly input Unicode characters in the text box due to a keyboard shortcut. For many Linux application (in particular, the web browsers...
I ran the search queries "anonymous", "register" and "unregistered" in the search box but didn't find a thread about why isn't anonymous/unregistered contribution allowed here. I recall one or two...
S.E. has wrongfully deleted questions and/or suspended people for posting pictures with brand names, because by default they think all brand names are advertising and spam. I confirm I don't work f...
The search function seems not to turn up good search results when sorted by relevance (the default sort). For example: Searching for community wiki on Meta Codidact turns up 12 pages of results, b...
