Motivation I often want to use a table to: Compare different solutions (for example, solutions addressing a new feature-request). List related posts and duplicates (some topics can be extremel...
Expected behaviour for different users My expectation is the same as in the question when a user is unable to see deleted posts. Sometimes a user can see a deleted post (such as when the user is ...
The tag limit is a trade off. If you allow many tags, you have more freedom when tagging, but also you must work harder to clean up unnecessary tags from people who don't know better. That last one...
I rejected several of the edits as post author, not as a moderator. Edits to the content were trivial at best, usually none. One suggested edit made the title longer without adding any meaning, t...
All the proposals so far are missing what people really want to know, which are two orthogonal metrics: How good/bad the crowd thinks the answer is. How heavily the crowd has weighed in. The first...
Lessons learnt from the past I've been at SO pretty much from the start. It is true that SO has sub-communities in a sense. Each major programming language (tag) has their own flavour of slightly d...
I added some comments to a post, and the number of current comments wasn't updated until I refreshed the page.
A solution to one of the issues you mention is to ditch the annoying nanny-ware and not require a minimum number of characters in the first place. Sometimes the meaning can be quite clear in a wor...
In the reference, Monica had said If you suspect voting fraud, please flag or use the "contact us" link. Moderators can't see who voted on what (even I can't), but there are people on the team w...
Maybe the ordering of the default tab should be more sophisticated, both for logged-out and logged-in users, new or otherwise. The "Activity" tab would then not be the default one, and the default ...
I agree that such a front page looks bad. I also agree with a comment that trying to simply hide poorly received posts is hiding the problem instead of solving it. It's sweeping the problem under ...
Not allowing fluff was the norm Elsewhere, and I consider it the norm here unless explicitly stated to the contrary. I am not aware of a community here that has stated they like content-free greet...
On Stack Exchange, I spent a significant portion of my time on the site editing posts, because the idea of an SE site as a repository of useful reference information has long appealed to me. Being...
Actually Codidact should support rep better than it does now. Most of the dislike of rep seems to come from a misunderstanding of its purpose. It's not to show who is "better" somehow, but a meas...
Wary of trying to be too general Although I like the idea of this for making sure indications of interest don't last indefinitely on Codidact Proposals, trying to find a general use for expiring r...
I think the current information in a user profile is very limited . In my opinion, the following information should be added: Visible to all users The number of questions and answers The number...
Clicking on the notification icon: Doesn't do anything. I noticed this just now. It's probably been a month or more since the last time I had a notification. Back then it worked as expected (...
I've noticed that the photography.codidact meta tagging system differs from what seems more conventional. For example, it appears that there no tags are mandatory (here at least one of [bug] [featu...
In addition to what Lundin said, we should do something Monica alluded to in her posts to each community. Some communities, particularly the less-active ones, have a high drivel ratio. This makes...
To answer the original question of how to approach programmer sites, I think a number of important features should be considered. Making relevant versions of OS, programming languages, libraries, ...
Does Codidact have a community that can fit this question from Quora? Scientific Speculation? Pre-suppose the background and context in the TV series Man in High Castle. If you remember the deta...
You only have one account across all of *.codidact.com, so you can't delete it on a per-community basis. See for example the fact that your user ID (number) is the same on all sites, and that the l...
Tags should be at the top In addition to the possibility of navigating to the question from somewhere other than the questions list (which means I haven't seen the tags), I'd also find it useful t...
We fixed the inconsistency a different way. Instead of computing the numbers for all threads at page-load time, we still report the full number of comments, but when you expand the comment thread ...
Argument against Quite simply, none of the available reactions has a clear and pressing need for such a marking. "Works for me" can be directly contradicted The only good reason to mark a "w...
