Below a post the user avatar shows, along with the username and some stats. The username is a link to the user profile page: Note the mouse cursor shows a hand pointing to indicate this is a...
In this post history, a very long link greatly overflows the width of the diff box. You can see there is a tail peeking out from the right side, and a horizontal scrollbar at the bottom of the p...
Allow pasting images directly into the editor. I.e., if an image is in the clipboard, ctrl+V would add it into the editor. That'd save a lot of time.
On a touchscreen device with an on-screen keyboard (such as a phone or tablet), the input field for a 2FA code brings up a keyboard of letters, requiring switching to numbers[1] before typing in th...

Putting very long text without spaces in an inline code block in a comment, leads to an overflow, as the block does not wrap nor scroll. Screenshot taken in Safari on iOS:
If a code block contains a line too long to fit in the available horizontal space, the excess to the right is hidden, with a scroll bar to allow seeing the rest (this is a good thing): Raw text: ...

Seeing the option to list a Twitter profile on one's profile leaves a bad taste in my mouth given recent developments on that site. I don't think it deserves to be promoted above other social medi...
There is a box in the right hand panel of most Codidact pages showing information related to Codidact: The first paragraph says: This community is part of the Codidact network. We have other ...
On-site searching is suddenly broken (as per today, I believe). When doing a search by relevance, you get posts sorted by date instead. Clicking "Relevance" doesn't fix the problem. Sorting search...
When searching, a user can be specified by including user:X in the search term, where X is the user id of the relevant user. You can also search for your own posts by specifying user:me. If you sh...
When signing in there is a checkbox labelled "Remember me". There is no supporting information to indicate what this checkbox is for. Without it, a user may not know which of the following it means...
I just signed up and wanted to take the tour, but it kind of aborts abruptly when explaining "upvoting" the first answer. After two retries I realized this is because I did not click on the actual...

For quite a few months now, every single time I have loaded up a draft that I was working on, only the post body has been loaded in. The tag list and title never appear. They are either not saved, ...
Seems like every Codidact section appears as a link in the footer, so I was expecting the new https://proposals.codidact.com/ to appear there as well. However, it looks like it doesn't. Is this an...
