I would like to see the date and time in UTC or my own time zone if set when I hover over the vague about 12 days ago to be able to compare when two events actually happened or any other reason. I...
What are (y)our principles for deciding how granular Codidact network communities should be? The Other Place seems to lean towards more granular communities—one for software development, one for se...
Ad templates (which community ads use) don't give an image for Article type posts. For example, for this promoted post, the image url that is used in the sidebar is https://languages.codidact.com/...
If I click on an already read notification in the inbox, it will go to the page I was notified about, but it will also change it from read to unread. Browsers affected: Microsoft Edge (Chromium...
Is it possible to add a type of post corresponding to the community wiki of Stack Exchange? The post should be: Not associated to any one user Editable by anyone without approval (or after a m...
When the title becomes bigger than as expected than UI in android don't look good. So, UI should updated for Android. I have faced the problem for User list also. Screen width is 480 and heig...
I just noticed this in EE, but the same symptom appears on other sites too: Note how the user pictures in the right column are larger than the others. On other sites this is more random, so I t...
I have been informed of the following bug about comments. I am using iPad Safari browser. When I tap "show more comments" to see hidden comments, the "edit" and "delete" options are disappeared fro...
I tried to vote (up) for Travel Codidact Site my vote will not take. I randomly tried to vote on a couple other proposal and some would not take my vote either. I was able to vote up for (and lat...
Can there be an option to cancel writing a comment; AFAIK, the only way to do that now is to refresh the page, which is annoying to do (especially when feeling lazy).
I recently made a few posts across multiple sites here, and I got responses to all of them, which all appeared in my inbox (this is normal and expected, of course). But then I clicked on them, and ...
Currently I still see comments that I deleted, under a post. But I don't need to.
On the EE site, Moderator Tools > Reports > Users yields the following graph: This can't be right, because it shows users joining before 7 June, the day the site was launched. It's also not...
I think there might be some sort of point bug. Two days ago, over on Judaism I had 38 points. The next day I was down to 28, leading me to believe that I had gotten multiple down-votes for a post I...
The site claims I edited this post 6 hours ago: https://electrical.codidact.com/questions/276256 6 hours ago I was very much asleep since that's around 4am here. I don't remember editing this post ...
Basically, the title. See the table of contents on https://meta.codidact.com/questions/278967.
I don't know if this is status-bydesign, but this looks like a bug to me: Is this intended behavior? Seems a bit weird to me if it is.
The default sort order, apparently everywhere, is by "activity". I virtually never want this and prefer to sort by "age" as I want to see which questions are new. The feature request is to add a p...
I don't like the idea that someone's signature can appear on a piece of text that he didn't write or approve. I'm guessing moderators can edit comments. If so, can a moderator-edited comment please...
Is there a privacy policy for Codidact? As I'm a resident within the European Union, the General Data Protection Regulation pretty much dictates how websites have to present their activities around...
I would like to get notifications about post which I participate in. Is there a way for me to subscribe to a specific question (or to all I have participated in)?
The level of activity of the communities vary. Some are more active than others, which isn't exactly a problem. However, I'm a bit worried when a community becomes significantly less active than ot...
This was definitely unexpected, and possibly a bug. A question was flagged over on Scientific Speculation that hadn't been acted on in any way on Codidcat and had no non-deleted answers (they were ...
Character count appears to me only when posting new comments but not when editing existing ones. This is a problem for me because it confused me not to understand why I couldn't save a comment whi...
Just now, I was notified that a post was added to one of my questions and coincidentally, the person adding that post was me. Nevertheless, I was notified about that event which seems a bit redunda...

Another thing I've noticed on https://outdoors.codidact.com/categories/19 : the question list currently shows the last activity on "2020 - May - Birds" as "last activity 10 days ago by Isaac Moses"...
In the first comment (by msh210) to this answer, the comment content is intermingled with the text containing the author and age of the comment. A screenshot demonstrating the issue is below.
This is not a codidact issue per se, but it affects the avatar functionality: https://unicornify.pictures/avatar/{id}?s=16 fails because unicornify.pictures has an outdated Go version: Go 1.9 is ...

We have some posting tips on the "ask question" (or "create post" etc) pages, and we plan to add better contextual help in the future. Another way to guide people would be with templates, a "proto...
I noticed the new side switcher and really like this feature. Oftentimes, I browse Codidact and read up on posts while I'm on the go and naturally I would like to switch sites as easily as with the...
So, I featured a link on Languages & Linguistics. However, I made it appear globally by accident (I expected it to be local, and it didn't prompt me whether I wanted it to be local or not so I ...
When sorting posts by tag, the tag usage part pops up as expected, but also the whole tag wiki. So when you actually start writing a proper tag wiki for a tag, anyone who wants to see posts under t...
Title is self-explanatory; on mobile (or when I just resize the browser window so it appears), the hamburger menu doesn't work on meta.codidact.com when not signed in. It works as expected on every...

I've noticed that the photography.codidact meta tagging system differs from what seems more conventional. For example, it appears that there no tags are mandatory (here at least one of [bug] [featu...
When attempting to look at my own flags by clicking the link under "Flags" on my profile, it gives a 500 server error.
Is it possible to accept an answer? How can I do that?
If this had a feature where one could set triggers for stuff, I'd use it to set up a trigger that re licenses all and each of my CC BY NC SA stuff to CC BY SA1 after each hits 50th year age. The go...
I was typing out a question that I was going to answer myself but when I was drafting up an answer, my internet browser decided to crash. It is a minor inconvenience but it did take me a while to t...
While browsing through different sites I notices the 'Lottery' button in the header of the Posts pages. It shows next to 'Activity', 'Age', and 'Score', so it is indeed a way to order the questions...
I received a Mod notification for a Duplicate Flag. In such flags (and anything similar where a Post reference is included), the referenced possible duplicate target should be a link instead of pla...
The process for site proposals here seems to be that someone makes a post, then (usually) Monica comes in with an answer asking for anyone interested in the site to comment in order to gauge intere...
