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...
Often I'm looking over a post and feel that I have what to add as a comment. But as soon as I look at the comments, I find that someone's already written exactly what I would have said. At that poi...
It's currently not feasible to develop a built-in chat system. While we do plan on having an integrated chat at some point in the future, it's not a possibility with the current time and resources ...
Fixed. I reached out to balpha, the creator, on Twitter, and he fixed it so that it works again. @superplane39 (Mithical (BLM)): .@balpha @unicornify is dead :( @iCatija (Catija): NOOOOOOOOOOOO...
Previously, clicking on the icon for Notifications or Communities at the top right of the page resulted in the appropriate drop down panel appearing. Today, the panel only opens if the square area ...
User names are less personal space than your profile description, and more in-your-face to other users. User names should therefore be more restricted than your personal profile description. User...
Several discussions have touched on the idea of being able to filter the contents of the post list. Whether your goal is to find unanswered questions, hide closed questions, hide ignored tags, or ...
feature-request status-completed I think it would be useful to display the post above each comment page so that it's easy to reference it when writing your comments. Status completed:
I'm starting to see the first signs of the inevitable "homework dumps" on Software Development as the site is gaining traffic a bit. The criteria for a homework dump is roughly: A raw copy/paste...
I'm sorry if I didn't make the purpose of these posts clear enough. We are asking each individual community to talk about those communities. We're not looking for general suggestions like "use Re...
Sometimes, there are issues that should not be made public (for instance, issues relating to security or privacy) and as such should not be posted here on Meta. Given the potential severity of thos...
It sounds like we want to temporarily revoke a person's ability to make lots of posts when recent quality is an issue. The Participate Everywhere ability allows one to post without limit. Nominal...
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: ...
As @Lundin stated in comments: Because they have 100 or so of them and we don't want to create 100 ghost towns? A community needs people and quality content. Without enough people, there w...
If you try to edit an comment and submit it with more than 500 characters, the site rejects your edit (500 error) but there is no visible explanation.
I think we should, voting score is a poor indicator of how useful a post is because most visitors aren't going to sign up and vote. Right now it's hard to tell how many people are reading the post...
On Code Golf: https://codegolf.codidact.com/categories/49 "Hello, World!" is listed as including 20 answers. On the actual page: https://codegolf.codidact.com/questions/279147 it says 18 answe...
Most of the sites are struggling to get questions and while it seems to me at least that more effort has been put into optimizing for the answerers than for the askers. To put it another way, ther...
We've set up a new place for exactly these types of questions: https://collab.codidact.org/
On Codidact, lots of things can be customized for individual communities. Generally these changes need to be made by admins, but we'll make them on request. But what are all these things? What c...
Recently, I saw this community ad: The actual title is 'Caution' and 'cautious' with ʃ or ʒ? The IPA characters seem to be unknown to whatever is rendering the ad, and so they were replaced by q...
I'm sorry, but to my best knowledge, the Codidact core team has no millionaires. We don't even have a common "Codidact bank account", because a certain pandemic has made it much harder to open one...
We've tried something pretty much like that. Specifically, both Writing Codidact and Scientific Speculation Codidact were seeded with content from Writing SE and Worldbuilding SE, respectively. (Th...
Codidact currently has several communities (with varying levels of activity), and several more proposals for new communities. There seems to be an effort in many of these proposals to collect users...
