There's a post on the Judaism front page titled Meor eynayim by de rossi by "deleted user" (which looks to actually be a deleted user, since that links to # rather than an actual user profile). Fo...

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...
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...

I just noticed that HTML entities (such as ℵ for ℵ or — for —) seem not to be supported in titles. Should they be? Clarification: I'm not asking for general HTML support in t...
Noticed that score (reputation) is different than I would expect. Bigger. Why is it changed? How is it calculated now? 10 for Q and 15 for A?
I just tried to edit my question on Outdoors (https://outdoors.codidact.com/posts/279707), but the "Edit" button at the bottom of the post is missing. Here is a screen shot: Microsoft Edge W...

I have been informed of the following bug. I am using iPad Safari browser. When I add an image to a post, the system only says "uploading, please wait ...". After waiting for a long time, the image...

We've had some discussions here on Meta about shared resource pages -- wiki-style articles that anybody could edit, canonical posts, and so on. My original idea for this was that individual posts ...
Currently (November 2020), the list of questions displays a "last activity" under each one of them. It refers, obviously, to when and who made the last action in the Q&A thread and links to the...

On mobile (haven't tested on PC yet but did test on desktop mode), the community ad is unclickable; I expected it to link me to the promoted post.
It seems that there is no longer a button to suggest edits on article-type posts (e.g. posts in Resources of Languages & Linguistics, or Sandbox of Code Golf.) For example, this post is missin...
On mobile if I unupvote a question the score goes down but the blue color on the arrow remains. I think it would be less confusing if the color changed back to grey after removing the upvote.
During our tour to teach users how to use the site, there's a point where we guide you through asking a question, including adding a title and tags: However, something you have when posting an a...
I'm sure there are people who love the keyboard shortcuts. However, I find them to (a) be somewhat overzealous (just now, I was somehow redirected to the "ask question" page while I was writing an ...

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/...
Is there a limit on the length of a post (either question, answer, article, etc) on Codidact sites? The current UI only shows this limit for comments, but not for posts - this is not a feature req...

On this answer to my question over on Languages, you can see how it ended up overflowing the post area and how part of it is hidden underneath the side widget. This is because of the long string o...

Please see point 2 below. If we align the "last activity" right, our eyes won't have to zigzag. We just read down the same column. Zerotime asked me to separate my six bullet points. I know "Cod...
