Two years ago I asked this question on Meta Stack Exchange about using SO in education. Having used SO for Teams actively for two years, my university now takes issue with the pricing model used by...
We've heard about a few people who were considering setting up their own instances, but I don't know whether any of them have done it yet. I hope people do; we didn't set out to just set up our ow...
Yes. There is some tooling built into the software to help identify serial voting, and when identified the Codidact team can remove the votes in question and reset rep counts, and moderators can of...
A bit over a year ago, I proposed to add a “reactions” like feature on Codidact, which would allow marking answers as “accepted”, “outdated” or “dangerous”, providing more detailed feedback to user...
We have added a summary of votes received (i.e. votes on own posts) to user profiles. You can access it by going to the Vote Summary tab. The summary is available publicly: The votes are aggrega...
I broadly agree, with two main caveats, one about what to delete, and one about how we go about it. By "what to delete", I'm looking at your point that: We may lose a few stray locally-grown an...
We have some software (but not software-development) proposals: "Superuser-like" community for software applications office suites Linux Are these three separate, distinct commu...
I would not merge everything together, but rather have the following communities: leave Software Development as it is Power User community separate and define a category for Office suites have...
Basically, I'd ideally want something like "asked 3 days ago by A, last activity 1 day ago by B". Having just the person without the question creation date would be significantly less useful but...
After hitting the "Cancel" button when writing or editing a post, a prompt shows up that says Any unsaved changes will be lost. Are you sure? [Okay] [Cancel] Hitting [Okay] will kick you out...
Is it possible to accept an answer? How can I do that?
Don't call it "expand", call it "preview" Minor detail, but since the purpose of that feature seems to be to preview more of a post than just the title, let's just call it preview instead. It's a...
You own your posts and are free to do with them as you choose, including posting them in more than one place -- here, Stack Exchange, Quora, Reddit, etc. By posting on Codidact you grant us a lice...
We have posted our default policy for generative-AI content. It's more of a clarification than an actual change; as pointed out in another answer, representing Chat-GPT or any other content that yo...
Bad behaviour is not welcome here. That does not mean that somebody who made a mistake in the past, cannot be welcomed here. As long as you will contribute to Codidact in a constructive way, and fo...
Currently, when editing a post the system will automatically save a draft for you after a short period of inactivity. This draft will then be loaded again if you leave the page and return, even if ...
For obvious reasons, we do not allow you to use any tag or attribute you want. All tags, that aren't on a special inclusion list are stripped from the input. There are two lists, one for posts and...
Can there be an option to cancel writing a comment; AFAIK, the only way to do that now is to refresh the page, which is annoying to do (especially when feeling lazy).
I think a system where sites can somehow nominate questions for broader publicity would be helpful, but I don't think we want to repeat the mistakes SE made with hot network questions. We've talke...
We have just pushed some updates related to tags. You will now see a "tags" link in the category bar (next to "posts"), which leads to a searchable list of all tags. Selecting an individual tag t...
@manassehkatz has already answered what you're directly asking about here, in how the organisation is financed. But there's also this: While this partially answers my question about who runs this ...
Dark theme is something I'd like to do, but right now it has to take a back seat to developing the features that we want to have. Creating and maintaining a dark theme is a significant amount of wo...
I've had some thoughts about this, which I'll try to coalesce into something resembling an answer. Codidact is growing, but we're still a small project. To help us grow, we're looking to build act...
