Why prefering Codidact to Stack Exchange?
As I explained in [this post](https://meta.codidact.com/q/277913) and some community staff confirmed, Codidact is almost a miniature of SE. In fact, I see no *radical* difference between them.

As we know, almost all (in my opinion, all without exception) people coming to Codidact are already familiar with SE. So, why should we expect that they prefer to contribute to this community, rather than SE? Only because of some meta issues?

I know that the main motivation for creating Codidact was some controversy about some meta issues. But, please note that many people, who are interested in contributing to a Q&A community, do not care meta subjects like "Code of Conduct", "Copyright Licenses", firing some community staff, ... .

Even, almost all Codidact community staff are still serious active SE users, and I think almost all [user protestors against some SE policies](https://dearstackexchange.com) will continue their contributions to SE even if they face more unpleasant policies. Why? Because **the main important** thing to almost all contributors is **"asking and answering."**

In my opinion, if we want alive communities, we need many people to contribute regularly, especially for some communities like a math community.
