Coming at this from a totally different perspective here. I think all of the above mention many great points but I can't help but feel that we will find more success in the community by offering so...
Why are comments deprecated to the point that none are visible without having to move away from the page? With page loads and mouse clicks, less is MORE.
How is this not easily solved with grade school math? -1 for being a dumb question. I can't tell whether this is trolling or a serious question, since finding the answer only requires sevent...
Just like on SE, things are vastly different between individual sites. You say you came from StackOverflow. Our most similar site is Software Development. It does seem to have reasonable activit...
I was looking at site proposals. I noticed lot of people including me were proposing for a site where we can ask any OS(Linux, Windows) related question. But, currently there's no site in Codidact ...
I think the title should come first, just because that's the way every other similar software does it (and because it is confusing having the entry order not match the display order). I really like...
Will there be a "follow" option in the future (to follow certain questions, that is)?
It's not the network sign-in that's created accounts for you - it's visiting the sites. When you visit a site and are signed in elsewhere, an profile is created for you on that site. So, with netwo...
I think there needs to be criteria for why a post should end up there. Whom should the post be interesting to? There are two possible different audiences/scenarios: This post is interesting to rea...
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.
My guess: Because they used a signed integer type for rep, therefore it's not capped at 0. (And hypothesizing that because of lazyness and simplicity rep substraction performs just a substraction i...
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...
I think that each sub community has to decide this independently. Codidact's vision was created with the bad experiences on SE so naturally there are a lot of users who were (or are) regulars there...
Should also be fixed with the next deploy.
Just now I noticed that when clicking on Help, there is a new box called "Site Information". What the …? This seems to have infested all sites, and doesn't provide much real information. It's abo...
I would like to be able to write e.g. [software.cd] and have it generate a link to https://software.codidact.com with a friendly title. Currently, it becomes a link based on the actual text content...
I am the user mentioned in this question. I believe that submitting an edit just for removing or adding a tag is not enough. BUT if you look at those questions, none of them have [discussion], [s...
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...
Another option is to not use button styling in the bar at all. The "Ask Question" button can become another tab along with "Posts", "Tags", and "Edits": This is my personal preference as it simp...
In addition to what Mithical said (+1), if we do ever get a direct message system, it must be opt-out by default. In other words, it must take a deliberate action by a user before they can receive...
I think of clutter primarily in terms of how it impacts community norms. If your programming language Q&A site has an about page that says, ‘We welcome questions about all programming language...
Here is a mechanism that addresses some of the problems: Each proposed new site is a full site in the structural sense. It has all the proposed categories, including meta. These sites would be i...
I think that a lot of the current approach mostly works. Once you've gotten here, if you have an interest in other topics, then you'll find the incubator. If you haven't gotten here or don't have...
This would make zero functional change to URLs. It's purely cosmetic. A link to a post on Codidact often contains no user-readable information about what awaits at the destination. When I find lin...
