Welcome to Codidact Meta!
Codidact Meta is the meta-discussion site for the Codidact community network and the Codidact software. Whether you have bug reports or feature requests, support questions or rule discussions that touch the whole network – this is the site for you.
Bug reports: meta.codidact.com or codidact.org?
I have just observed a bug, and I'm not sure what the protocol is. Is bug reporting and tracking done on codidact.org, meta.codidact.com, or both? If both, and I can't find the bug mentioned on either, should I prefer to post it here or there?
(My personal preference would be to favour here, because although I have now created accounts on both there will be other users who haven't).

I'm assuming you mean forum.codidact.org, rather than just codidact.org? The former is a discussion forum; the latter is just a static site with nowhere that you could report anything.
If that's the case, bug reports come here, not to the forum. The forum is there for discussions about feature design and project trajectory; most of those have been concluded, so it's serving at the moment mostly as an archive. Bug reports come here to Meta (or to GitHub, but here is much easier for most people).

If you know that an issue is specific to our network and not the code, please use Meta. This could include things like editing the help or changing configuration settings.
If you don't know (that's fine!), please report bugs on either Meta or GitHub, whichever you prefer. We monitor both, and if something isn't in the best place for us to track it, we'll fix that. Bugs that require code changes will end up as GitHub issues (we create these from Meta posts), and feature requests made on GitHub that call for community input will be brought to Meta. We want to make it as easy as possible for you to let us know about issues; I'd rather spend a little time managing reports than miss a report because it was too much trouble for someone to report it.
