I have been visiting the site for some time now and I am slowly developing a bit of a problem with the landing page for codidact.com: First of all, there is no indication on that page of whether...
This would require that we purchase a new domain for each community hosted on our network. As a non-profit project funded by donations, that's not a commitment we can make, nor the best use of the ...
In addition to the issue of cost, there is also the issue of control of the top-level domain. While political events in Congo perhaps do not dominate world news, events over the past few decades d...
We should make it easier for trusted users to manage tags. Can we please have some feedback on the following ideas? Creating tags directly (independently of a post): move from mod-only to anyo...
Maybe to address some safety/security concerns wihtout burdening admins/mods too much it could be useful to add a "tier 2" tag privilege. Leave the current edit tag privilege as is (just adding th...
As with most other suspected violations of site policy, please raise a moderator flag. The mods can then look into it, and escalate it to the Codidact Team if necessary. The mods and admins can the...
I'm not sure if this is actually an answer or not, but as suggested in a comment thread, I'll put it out there and see what happens. My understanding is that Fediverse / ActivityPub support doesn'...
You have a slight misunderstanding here, I'm afraid. Companies like Lloyds Bank and British Airways are both part of highly regulated industries (banking and aviation). Those industries have their ...
Horrible hacky dark mode Until there's a real dark mode, here are some quick CSS hacks that you can try out in the developer window of your browser, and add to a userscript or user stylesheet if y...
Welcome! Not only is it permitted, but you won't be the first to run a private instance — there's already a university using the Codidact code (QPixel) on a private network. We're building this p...
Is there a way to send a message to a moderator without raising a flag? If yes, please explain. If no, consider this a feature request. I tried to send a message to a mod about a question that g...
Codidact is small, as is our team. Our development team is even smaller. That means that time, especially dev time, is a very precious resource that we have little of. Something like this requires ...
Codidact has been divided into 2 categories (PowerUsers/SoftwareDevelopment) No, it hasn't. It is a network of 17 communities plus the global Meta site - just like how Stack Exchange is a netw...
Hover state changes shouldn't cause elements to change size As an example, try using a mouse on desktop to hover over some of the tags in the questions with more than one tag. The change of font ...
"gamification" is a bit of a different concept from "fun". Gamification refers to incentivizing participation; we do this currently via reputation (and Abilities to a certain extent). You get poin...
As noted by @OlinLathrop in a comment: The real question is why some sites artificially cap rep at 1 or 0. Some people can make a net negative contribution. Rep should reflect that. If it were cli...
I've noticed that images uploaded to Codidact don't retain any meta information. That is, they don't keep either the name of the image or the image extension. While the former isn't that bad (alt t...
Welcome to Codidact! Codidact is very much a work in progress, and input is welcome. This network-wide Meta is the best place to find existing feature requests. Some also come in as GitHub issues...
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...
Meta is its own meta. The entire site is already for meta-discussion of the Codidact network. Since this site is itself part of the network, discussion of Codidact Meta on Codidact Meta itself is f...
There have been comment responses with no follow-up from the original author on both posts, essentially saying that the development team has been unable to reproduce the issues described. We would ...
Besides the technical stuff, I think that postponing launching new communities would actually hinder the Codidact project altogether. The thing is that this network of sites is built to curate know...
Votes on meta supposedly means "agree/don't agree". Which may make sense in some cases, not so much in other cases. I have argued many times on the Codidact forums/meta that using the same Q&A ...
Since it's easy: yes, done - going live in the next build.
As of the time of writing, this request has the [status-completed] tag despite the change not being live yet. It is completely developed, sure, but since it is not yet deployed, should the request ...
