Many many things online don't close when you click outside them. But then the UI usually shows how to close it (usually with an đź—™). I think the top of the list should have an đź—™ on the right side (n...
I learned today that another Q&A site on the web will soon be ditching its Developer Story feature in which members of that site maintain a chronological log of their skills, achievements, cert...
Start Marketing? As I said earlier, I am not a marketer and I don't have relation in huge community. So I don't have any idea how to invite people to X. I didn't have much more idea of internet w...
Issues like this should be flagged for mod attention, not "discussed on meta". There is nothing to discuss & the staff doesn't need input from random users about their "opinions" on the matter....
I've declined this, for the same reason that I've declined other similar Unicode-related "bugs" before. They're not really bugs, just a product of how easy Unicode is to abuse. The solution: don't...
By some odd mistake I wrote only about half a title to a post in Scientific Speculation yesterday: Post itself: https://scientific-speculation.codidact.com/posts/283763 Post history: https://sc...
Currently a user who comes to create a post can only read the post's body in the preview area, but not the post title (it just isn't there). I suggest to show a post's title in the preview because...
All categories are treated equally; voting in any category affects reputation. This is different to how it works on Stack Exchange, but that's just one of those differences - neither approach is n...
The "General comments" title is a left-over from earlier versions of the software that didn't have comment titles. When the threaded comments were introduced, and thread titles with them, existing...
Many images and screenshots captured today, are larger than 2 MB, the max allowed size on Codidact. This means users will regularly run into a barrier when attempting to upload images to their post...
On any Q/A site, or even analogous media like support forums, there is a dichotomy between "asking for a fish"[1] questions and "learning to fish"[2] questions. Teaching how to fish is usually mor...
Is it a problem if specific users harvest highly-voted questions on SE, then self answer, to farm a huge amount of rep? Eh, maybe, but it's not important enough to spend much time thinking about. ...
As you say: they have no way of doing so (outside of putting it in the info box) Since you can put any links you want within your arbitrary info text, there is no problem to solve here. You can lo...
Examining Codidact communities, one can easily find out that Codidact is almost a duplicate of SE I know that many Codidact users (or maybe all of them) are current or former SE users, so it was ex...
My other Meta post n the usage of status tags pointed out a pretty big gap to me. Namely, we don't have a tag to signify that something is being actively worked on. While we currently use either [s...
A similar question was asked on English language and usage and the answer is that it depends on the audience. However choosing American English might be a better choice since it is more likely for ...
Please no, except perhaps for unusual form-like posts. I have never experience seeded text to be useful. It's actually a negative because it distracts and I have to delete it. Seeded text is neve...
Why is there no written chat here where one can post without having to worry about deletions and downvoting? SE has a very good one where I have written a very lot on. Why can't we discuss a subjec...
I was reviewing some post in SE about bumping post which is related to this question. I got a point of his question. Read the question, the user was doing annoying edits to his post only to bump hi...
Our recent hot post (Threaded comments are here!). I had wrote some answers in that question. And, there's lot of answers also. Even, currently I don't have much more time to read all of those answ...
You only have one Codidact account across all communities. As mentioned in the answers to your other question, it is not possible to delete an account for one community but not another because ther...
I agree that it should be easier to see comments than it is, but one difference here from Elsewhere is that we are trying to de-emphasize comments. As Elsewhere has abundantly demonstrated, if you...
The advantage is that the casual visitor sees less crap. However, there are also downsides to this: It makes it hard to understand what the norms are. This is especially important for the same c...
I'm one of the offenders, and the answer is quite simple: I often don't know what else to name it, even after several minutes of hard thinking. I want commmenting to be a task of ease, not a task o...
Here is a redraft and elaboration of what this post is about, partially in response to some comments I've received. This post may be about a few different things at once, and may need to be refact...
