Does Codidact have a Submit a Data Access Request form, like SE? How long shall Codidact take?
Different comment categories I propose (arbitrarily) to define different categories of comments (but it is just a first draft proposal which must be discussed ;), the categories written in parenth...
Good point. Ideally that button just wouldn't be there at all if posting isn't allowed, but we never planned for that case. I don't know what it would take to either remove it or cause it to link...
Related: Tracking progress towards the Edit ability The Activity tab of my user profile, filtered to Edits shows 20 helpful suggested edits, and 1 declined. The Edit Posts Ability page sho...
I like the idea of adding a way to "co-sign" a comment -- the "me too" part of this proposal. I don't think we should also add "disagree" using that mechanism, though. Disagreement should be expl...
I noticed that the edit to the tags in this edit history does not have a tag diff section. It makes it appear that the second version of this post has no changes: For comparison, here is tag-onl...
During the transition from having a Site Proposals category on Meta to having a separate Codidact Proposals community, there is a message at the top of the Site Proposals category with a link to th...
The classic justification is of course that we need downvotes to flag bad posts, so that users can skip, filter or sort them to the last page, and moderators can prioritize them. Except we alread...
For a while today, I got DNS resolution failures for collab.codidact.org. Now I'm getting a certificate hostname mismatch error; the certificate presented is for catchall-server-default.s449.sures...
My main area of concern would be your "Problem", point 2. You seem to have put a lot of thought into that one as well, but I have a number of questions. I'm first most interested in fixing the top ...
I'm getting used to the UI here where the the title comes after the body when when writing a question. I'm finding it a bit annoying because I write my titles first and I have to scroll down to do...
We had a still-undiagnosed problem involving (waves hands vaguely, sorry) involving DNS records and/or Cloudflare for our .org subdomains, including collab. We were able to correct the problem fai...
But I was surprised to see that most of those users were all 1 point users with very generic looking profiles. I expected older users to be the ones with more points. Isn't that the case? I also ch...

If you take a look at one of those users, you can see where they're all coming from. For instance This user was automatically created as the author of content sourced from Stack Exchange. The ...
Stack Overflow was created on the premise of having questions and answers without the chitchat and other common problems well-known in Internet discussion forums. The founders learned they still ne...
This bug appears to be fixed, but it is not. The following works for me, but the original poster of the answer can still see the deleted thread. How it seems to someone who didn't post the origina...
It appears that this problem has been fixed. See the related How to make an edit that only changes the tag list by adding a tag that does not exist? which has been marked "status-completed".
Difference between older images and recent images Following a link to the url of an image uploaded to Codidact redirects to an AWS link for recently uploaded images. For older images, following th...
When flagging a post as "Needs author's attention", the interface provides a single-line text entry field for "Details?", which does not allow for newlines. Input text scrolls without any clear ind...
From a comment thread page, pressing "flag" on a comment results in a pop up panel with a text input and a "Flag" button. On mobile, in portrait mode, this pop up panel overlaps the left hand edge ...
As a workaround, it's possible to write code in the browser console to iterate over the <li> tags within the <div> for each diff entry, and join their text with newlines in between. The...
I see the described behaviour in Firefox but not in Chromium. Operating System: Fedora 38 Firefox version: 116.0 Chromium version: 115.0.5790.102 Example of a Post History page where this b...
I suspect the add ons and fork mentioned are not relevant. I see a persistent notification circle on standard Firefox with no add ons. It doesn't seem to be completely consistent but the general be...
I think this has come up before, maybe tangentially on some specific site (EE.CD ?), but I lost track of the posts/comments. Anyway, I think it would be useful, at least for EE.CD, but I post here...
