I had requested to delete my account. My account was deleted in the following communities. Software Poweruser Linux No one can visit my profile also (excluding moderator ~ I guess). In the ...
Currently, list shows last activity about @time hour ago by @name. Instead of last activity couldn't we write @name edited a post @time hour ago. And, @name had answered on the question. And, ano...
Currently the moderator icon is not consistent across views. See for example this post by Jirka Hanika, a moderator in Linguistics: And then see who it looks in his/her profile page: ...
Discourse forum software has a neat feature whereby the post preview appears beside the input field. The post submission form pops up as an overlay to the main view of the current thread, showing t...
This is a good suggestion, and I thought "oh, just adding another button there -- that might be easy enough that even I can do it!". And then I realized there's something else we ought to address ...
Yes, we need to clean things up For a Q&A site to come across as useful, the chaff simply needs to be separated from the wheat. We can't expect external search engines to care about our intern...
I am interested in the idea that an extremely modular software architecture for Codidact could have the kind of general, self-propagating benefits that things like being free open-source have. To m...
coupling permissions with specific experience in the area of the permission is a good idea and should be kept as the basic premise of the permission system. I disagree. This is the basic flaw of ...
A few day ago, @aCVn proposed that there should be a network-wide sign in to avoid signing in into each sub-site individually. I upvoted the proposal because I like the idea. As of yesterday (19.06...
I am starting to think about user preferences. This won't happen for a while, but I'd like to gather input so we can start thinking about a functional design. Currently a user has a single account...
Your question "how to get a display out of the frame of a consumer product" doesn't have anything to do with electronics. For the same reason as asking how to get a shelf out of your fridge has not...
The icon appears in the "user card": It doesn't appear in the post lists (question list, search results, etc), but it doesn't seem like mod/admin status is important to call out there, where you...
As things stand, the options for flagging a question seem rather spartan: Image of flagging dialog We have: two options for actual abusive use of the site software an option for dupli...
This is my suggestion for how to implement hobbling of users who consistently post low-quality content. For a final decision, when a user saves a post: First, look at their most recent post of ...
I want moderators to be able to grant or suspend abilities at fairly granular levels, because sometimes that person who's answered a ton of questions well also has a tendency to make noisy edits or...
Update: We didn't do what I proposed here, but we instead created a wiki post type. See there for details. I wrote a GH ticket based on this suggestion, with the following expansion: We should...
There is this question, revision 1. It contains several fragments I call "fluff": Opening phrase, greeting: Hello fellow community Cliché: Your help would be greatly appreciated ...
I like this idea (obviously, clearly it is partly inspired by my post https://judaism.codidact.com/questions/276421 ). A bit of confusion though about "category", "post", etc. A category is a group...

Should the post title come before the body? When starting a new post, the first thing that comes to my mind is the topic of the post. In that case I usually first jot down a draft title and then st...
I think the title should come first, just because that's the way every other similar software does it (and because it is confusing having the entry order not match the display order). I really like...
Today I saw the following question on Software Dev (this is the beginning): (rest of post...) The title, "connect with SLOT/SIGNAL:QPushButton clicked signal not received by main window" sounds li...
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...
We don't care about /.../ edit history. I'm going to disagree here, actually. Edits can be substantial in their own right, introducing new content from users other than the original author of the...
