I just had to go into my account preferences and turn autosave off again because it somehow had been reset to on. I know that I went through all Codidact communities a while back (maybe a month or...
When starting a new comment thread, the "Create thread" button is disabled until the content of the "Your comment" text box has at least 15 characters. This character count includes leading and tra...
Can you please add a flag reason for "AI/LLM content"? I occasionally see people try to make some posts where they clearly just plug the question into ChatGPT and copy/pasted the response into the...
When I read through https://codidact.org/ I get the impression that the focus is on helping people get their questions answered. There are obviously other benefits, like providing a platform for pe...
Update: the 500 error is now fixed; if you pull the Qpixel develop branch you'll pick this up. See below for a workaround in the meantime. (The seeding problem that caused the 500 error isn't fix...
I made some questions and/or answers which I later learned were apparently preposterous and were downvoted, so I deleted them. As their author, I should be able to view them so long as I have a dir...
I've just tested a small change that would always show your deleted posts on your own profile. Other users (without sufficient privileges) can't see them, as now. Should we always show you your d...
We have added a new flag type for all post types: Generated by AI: This post appears to contain AI-generated content (such as ChatGPT) without attribution This places the focus on the attribu...
Let's not. The community order makes little sense as it is now (based on creation date?), but at least it is fixed. It's arbitrary, but you get used to where things are. It would be even worse i...
When an HTML tag is used in a post but is not supported by Codidact, a warning message is displayed listing the unsupported tags. However, syntax highlighting hints in the form of HTML comments suc...
I use Noscript, so Javascript is blocked by default for new domains for me. As it happens, prior to today I had codidact.com (and jsdelivr.org) whitelisted, but not codidact.org. When I was writin...
Given the latest debacle Somewhere Else, where users fear that the site contents will get used for the purpose of training AI, what can be done at Codidact to prevent such from happening? At w...
No, these comments are not in line with the text or spirit of the Code of Conduct. I've gone ahead and removed or edited these particular cases. A couple notes: Please don't call out individu...
I am not a big social media user. I have a LinkedIn account (2 actually, because I have no reason to pay for it so that I can merge accounts) and hardly use it. I have a Discord account and don't e...
Strongly disagree! Stack Exchange reinvented the wheel with is chat - IRC existed. Then Discord again reinvented that wheel. We are using this, come join us! Now here is no place to reinvent the wh...
Initially HNQ's were the only reason I ever contributed to sites outside of Stack Overflow. In my opinion, a similar tool might be even more valuable in the early stages of Codidact's growth. I cou...
I'm not familiar with Reddit, and don't know what you mean by "submit links". However, it seems this other site has certain rules, and your question here is about how to circumvent them. You have...
Should it be correct etiquette for the asker to leave a comment saying "Thanks" or the like on helpful answers? This was certainly discouraged on other Q&A sites I know of, though maybe it's ...
When a new post appears in the category, it has both "posted ..." and "last activity ..." on it. It's a minor annoyance, but I feel like there shouldn't be a duplicate notice.
A complaint we've heard a lot is that when a community's front page has many questions that are not well-received, it deters visitors. (It also deters some people who are already here, I know.) T...
You can always take a poke around our dev testing site, which is currently located at https://a.dev.codidact.org/. While its main purpose is to serve as a place to test new features and break thing...
Intrinsic & extrinsic motivation, and perverse incentives It is clear that your intentions are good, but the outcomes may not be. Intrinsic or extrinsic? People's motivation for making edits...
I have some questions. Actually, I learned from SE, that "separate questions or, do not ask multiple questions in one", which is why I am not adding multiple questions at once. But, if we can ask m...
This seems like a good idea from a programming or computer hardware and software perspective. Choosing the version of the proglang you're using helps to somewhat distinguish what version of the la...
The Codidact keyboard shortcuts list (triggered when ? is pressed) looks like this: I wanted to close it, but pressing the same key again didn't work, and it wasn't specified in the popup. I rea...
