This is very half-baked and just brainstorming at the moment, but it'd be good if askers received some sort of feedback that people were working on responding to them. Right now, some questions sit...
I keep learning about the hard work that has been done in Codidact over time. There are many little things that are known by the veterans, but may not be easy to understand for the newcomers like m...
We have an issue open to fix this in the code, but I recently realized that moderators can also fix it locally: the close reasons are editable. I've edited it here on Meta to say "This question ha...
This is fixed now. We know that the error message isn't very informative; we'll try to address that later. But you now get one of those pink pop-up error messages if you try to link a post to its...
The reason why this wasn't added on SO is because lots of people already struggle to use correct formatting for emphasis, using code formatting, quote format and weird crap like that. It's kind of ...
SE sites (that aren't in beta) have "community ads", which are ads submitted by users on that site for things they think will be of interest to other users on that site. Some use them to promote S...
S.E. has wrongfully deleted questions and/or suspended people for posting pictures with brand names, because by default they think all brand names are advertising and spam. I confirm I don't work f...
We don't seem to have active Redditors (people with the track record that would prevent being labeled as spammers), but I'm all for responsible promotion! Do we have within our community an establ...
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...
Three of Codidact's early communities did large-scale imports of content from Stack Exchange, and at the request of some community members, we added an icon to those questions on question lists. O...
I'll post here the same answer I posted for the Judaism.Codidact variant of this question: Codidact and Stack Exchange are two independent sites. They may have similar functionality at a cursory g...
I was recently editing someone else's answer, but I didn't like my changes and decided to redo them. However, there was no way to reset the edit (revert to the state before I started editing). The ...
If you wish the staff to start acting like paid employees, maybe you should discuss how you can pay them. Maybe set up some kind of foundation that funds Codidact servers and pays the wages of a st...
I wasn't the one who added the tag, and I didn't handle the flag. But the way I see it, the [status-declined] tag was added specifically because of this line: The Codidact community team have acce...
Allow me to go out somewhat on a limb. I get the feeling from your post, and your posts in general, that you're thinking "Codidact this" and "Codidact that". Here's a friendly piece of advice: Beyo...
Meaning of the status-declined tag is clear in case of feature request, bug type of question or, even, flags. But "discussion"? It's confusing. Context: Voluntariness vs. Responsibility, which of t...
I think there is a bug with a final text numbering not matching the numbering in the preview. I recently posted this answeron meta. When I edit the question the preview of the text displays correc...
Okay this is a weird one. I just found this bug when asking this question. It turns out that if you try to open an ability page (e.g. https://meta.codidact.com/abilities/unrestricted) when you're ...
Make another pass over the color choices Just some general observations here... Blue background is used to highlight that a question has no answers, but also for action buttons (ask question, fil...
I had visited the dashboard. In it I saw some meta sites containing silver circles. Others do not. What does the silver circle represent? Is it a bug? There's a hover text on the silver butto...
Color is used more sparingly in this design, with the eye drawn to unanswered questions and the "ask" button (which is now in line with the list of questions rather than all the way to the right)...
There are two aspects to copies, license/attribution and duplication. The CC-BY-SA license doesn't require you to include attribution links for your own work. This is why, on communities with imp...
At this early stage I think you'll simply have to give out the privilege manually to users per community, similar as to how we've gotten temporary moderators in place. Given that they are active us...
Welcome to Codidact. I'm glad you found your way here. In case you haven't seen it yet, The Codidact Vision lays out, at a high level, what we aspire to build. We put community first, and feedba...
I notice that a number is displayed as the hovertext / tooltip when hovering over the voting buttons and current score of a post. Would it be helpful for the hovertext to include a brief descriptio...
