feature-request status-completed number of comment text isn't showing, while editing comment. This happened for earlier comments also. In that comment, I had written more than 500 letters. Sudd...
I see a lot of frustration in your post. I'm sorry you're having a rough time on Codidact. I'm particularly sympathetic to the language barrier; languages are hard to gain fluency in (at least as...
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 ...
If I understand correctly, you'd like to have some sort of "summary table" covering all the answers for a question that has a lot of them. While this can't be manually curated (but wait, see below...
Related: Confusing percentage on Edit Posts Ability page Currently, the best place I can find to track my progress towards the Edit ability (30 approved suggested edits with at least 95% ap...
I just handled some "not an answer" flags by converting an answer to a comment on another answer. The "convert to comment" dialog asks for a post ID. The obvious way to supply this was to copy a li...
October 2024 The user profile now includes the "all communities" tab, which links to all of the user's profiles on the network. Along with each link it shows the total number of posts and rep...
why should anyone downvote a community proposal, like this post? Because they think it's a flawed proposal. That really should have been obvious. In the particular case you cite, note that you go...
I'm not sure where to start, on my first visit to this site. I don't know the rules, the context, the history, anything really. What brought me here is the search for better online discussion techn...
We currently let users with the Curate ability promote posts across the Codidact network. Should we choose some subset of these for promotion? Well this seems like an extremely hard ability to...
Any text you didn't write yourself must be set off in a quote box and attributed. I believe this is already existing policy, and applies regardless of where the quoted text came from (like anoth...
A site may be effectively dead in terms of new valid contributions. That is unfortunate, and may reflect badly on the rest of the Codidact network. A user visiting Codidact for the first time, may ...
Before I found out about the explicit closure reasons in the interface, this is the proposed set I was working on: Duplicate Description: self-explanatory. Commentary: here is still an open ques...
Codidact started as an attempt to make something better/different than SE. When it was started, pretty much everyone involved shared a consensus about what it should not be: Not run by a private...
I see there is a number next to each users' name, which in some places is even called "rep". That makes sense. What is mysterious is how it's calculated. My rep makes no sense. I started out wr...
I'd like to move Close and Delete to the Tools menu (now that we have that menu). This menu is generated based on what you have the privilege to do, so that's a better place for these items. Doin...
We have a tool for doing bulk imports of questions (and answers) from SE. It has several limitations: Running it requires direct DB access. The resulting data is sometimes wrong in various ways -...
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...
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...
I suggest we show questions in the list differently depending on their rating. Good questions are show as they are now. Poorly received questions are shown visually de-emphasized, like smaller te...
I like this, but... I've often wanted this feature. I feel bad about cluttering the top of the question list when I make a minor typo fix on an old post. However, having thought about it more ove...
This is perhaps a longer term solution, with slightly broader scope than the question, but I'm mentioning it for consideration since the question made me think of it. It still makes sense to implem...
I am a new user to Codidact that just migrated from StackOverflow and there are some things I would like to get across. Welcome to Codidact! Thank you for sharing your suggestions for improvem...
New information or critical edits Adding new information or making edits which need to be done as soon as possible (maybe to remove dangerous information or something). -> go for it! Useful, ...
Some background: A discussion about deleting/preserving comments and giving user feedback popped up on Software Development meta here: How are we supposed to give feedback for poor questions if su...
