Whatever we do, I think the following points should be true in any case: Whenever you can give votes, you should be able to retract those votes. Be it because you didn't actually mean to vote ...
When searching, deleted posts are excluded from the results for most users. The exception is that moderators and admins see deleted posts in search results. This is as expected, as moderators and a...
Here's a suggestion for a replacement for the missing information text that should be more welcoming without being too large: In order to give you helpful answers to your question, we need some ...
The Code of Conduct text on all the sites [communities] has some default text that is either supposed to be replaced by string templating or maybe customized. Emphasis in quote block below. This...
If a suggested edit is made on a question that has been deleted, the suggested edit is created successfully but does not show in the suggested edits list, even to users with the Curate ability (who...
Deferred. We would like the community switcher order and the dashboard order to match, and currently we don't have any UI for a user to change that order. When we add a network profile we'll have...
Sometimes, images found in posts blend with the background. That can certainly look better than an image that stands out from the surrounding page, but every now and then, standing out is just what...
I just handled some "not an answer" flags by converting an answer to a comment on another answer. The "convert to comment" dialog asks for a post ID. The obvious way to supply this was to copy a li...
On StackOverflow, you could bookmark a question, and you would get notified for answers as if you posted it yourself. This was useful when you see an unanswered question and think "yeah, I'd also l...
Suppose you feel another user is stalking or harassing you in comments. These are of course subjective feelings, and need to be judged as per the objective facts of the matter. In this hypothetical...
On the site, table content is often jammed all together in the first column, where the next column is happily spread out. I have made some of my tables extremely terse to accommodate. This is from ...
Superior technology The site software supports more post types than just Q&A, and multiple Q&A sections with separate labels. This allows each community to organize content, post high-...
SE recently made a deal allowing OpenAI to train their LLMs on community generated content (user-created questions and answers). Many active SE users were rather dismayed about this (including myse...
We installed QPixel and when going to Tags we receive a 500 error: The exact error is: NoMethodError: undefined method `tags' for nil:NilClass The installed version is: Version 6ba3d0ad (...
Combining several suggestions here: if a post has active (pending) spam flags, then we take the following actions: For anonymous users (people not logged in), we don't render the links. For log...
I don't think making cross-posting easier is a good idea. This makes it too easy for users to overwhelm communities with non-original content, which isn't good for the search engine ranking of Codi...
We don't just spin up communities about topics that interest us personally - all new communities go through the Site Proposal process here on Meta. The process includes making sure that there is a ...
As part of our mission to be a place where communities are fully supported, one of our goals is to make sure our site is accessible for everyone. With that in mind... what can we do better, access...
Response to homework dumps should be site-specific. On Electrical Engineering, we addressed this up front by explicitly mentioning homework in the Allowed Topics help file (See the very last bulle...
Right now the sites are all hidden away down at the bottom of the site, and the questions are forced to be 50 per page. I would like a way to swap between sites I am logged in on more easily.
Since a few days, my Firefox add-on Privacy Badger shows me a new tracker originating from analytics.codidact.org. I read the privacy policy and it states that there is analytics going on to improv...
Was reading this Post and I certainly agree with the general differences like open source and non-profit that differentiate Codidact. But the Community vs Repo point leaves some questions. Sure eac...
When users of a Codidact site come up with bugs or feature requests that are not specific to that site: Is it preferable that they post to their local Meta or to Meta.Codidact? Is one of these ...
This might sound silly, but ever since I wrote my first post here, I have noticed that the title comes after the body and I find it quite strange. Since I have some activity using Stack Exchange (b...
