Yes, the link I am speaking about has disappeared now as it was replaced by the 9-dots picture from the top navbar. (more) |

@#53922 Real names are an exception, but as mentioned in another comment thread on this question, I would nudge the user to consider making a (slight) change to avoid the name "collision". (more) |

Can you please provide at least one example for the "This has been something of a hot potato Someplace Else"? (more) |

@#8045 Yes, the payment was fine, it is just the 404 Not found page that might create confusion. It might be related to the fact that I was not starting on a "normal" site URL, but directly from the Donate URL and it might fail due to some strange routing error. (more) |

@#54706 [This help topic](https://meta.codidact.com/help/voting) mentions a daily voting limit of 30 (default value, might be changed at community level). (more) |

AFAIK, SE allows closed questions to be shown to virtually anyone and I often get search engine results directly to closed questions. The deleted ones are indeed visible to users with 10K+ reputation (non-beta sites).
I find your idea the quickest to implement, but some underlying issues with que... (more) |

Yes, I agree. The sandbox should be an opt-in, not a default option for a community. Software Development is also a good candidate because many recent questions are low quality and could be improved with some community members and OP effort. (more) |

In the meantime, Codidact has a legal form and it is able to [receive donations](https://meta.codidact.com/donate). (more) |

Yes, tag merge requires some attention and that's why I always read the explanatory text so that I am sure about which tag survives and which does not. (more) |

Until recurrent payments are allowed, I have set up a recurrent task in my task manager (monthly) to make a payment. Also, I am not sure amount the commissions, but AFAIK they include a fixed amount, so I guess less frequent bigger donations would be preferable. (more) |

Good job! :). Might be a matter of taste, but I find the Donate button quite easy to miss as it is below the initial view (you have to scroll a little to get to it). Another option is to have a little link next to Help (on the top navbar) if it is not too intrusive. (more) |

The post has been deleted by its author and it seems to contain the expected tags now. Anyway, there is some (cache-related?) weirdness surrounding the tags and sometimes things are (partially) not applied. (more) |

I think one nice approach is to not show the character length unless the text length is getting closer or above the max length. This prevents:
1. cluttering the UI with information you almost never want to know
2. having some other UI element changing as you type (the char count)

@Technologicallyilliterate I have added you, but your link goes to the top of this question. Is your answer deleted (and thus visible only for a few members)? (more) |

Not sure if your request is clear. Do you want to see how the total stars (algebraic sum of received votes) evolves over time across the board? (all accounts). Should this include meta? Also, putting together activity from, let's say Software Development and The Great Outdoors is a little bit strange... (more) |

@ArtOfCode - why do we actually need this filtering? Is it related to script injection? I am asking because it is the first time I notice such filtering on any platform that deals with text posts (and code). Thanks. (more) |

@ArtOfCode - I have a similar issue with [this script](http://sqlfiddle.com/#!18/a50101/1). Cloudflare Ray ID: 642f7b348e07d42b. Thanks. (more) |

This is a great suggestion. It can also be applied when importing questions and answers, but fetching only the most up-to-date or relevant answers, thus getting better content that SE provides. (more) |

I agree that questions about Cloud technologies can be asked on Software development as long as they are related to the technical part (an offtopic question is [this one](https://software.codidact.com/posts/280223) ). By technical part I mean topics like configuring an authentication service, securit... (more) |

One quick way for potential answerers to indicate this is via comments. I saw this being used on Politics.SE (more frequently for questions in danger of being closed that for "normal" questions, but still...). (more) |

I would also like to participate in such a community. I have a rather large experience of asking questions on Politics.SE, so I would be able to mainly contribute by asking questions. I am able to answer only questions related to Eastern Europe though. (more) |

Reputation in the user card might be an incentive for some, so I agree with ghost-in-the-zsh. It should be so important, as it seems to be on SE network (simply asking a few popular questions gets you lots of points and privileges), but I would leave it visible by default. (more) |

@MonicaCellio I think they should be on-topic until we find a better place for them (not sure, but SE had a Web Application site for this type of questions). (more) |

I agree with OlinLathrop on this one. However, one can easily get used to Codidact as well. The first action is to jump and write a title. There is nothing that prevents me to change it later if I realize it does not fit the content. (more) |

@Lundin That was just a temporary list to have a start. It was meant to be changed over time. Codidact Power User sounds very well btw :) (more) |

@Monica Cellio - I also think Office suites is too narrow to have a single community for it. Yes, usage of all mainstream applications would fit. (more) |

@Moshi - yes, per category makes more sense. E.g. In meta +1 mostly means "I agree" rather than "it is useful". This distinction is important for new users who might get some downvotes on meta simply because the community disagrees, not that the post includes incorrect information. (more) |

I have just add a new tag. Only when I made a slight change in the body, the edit could get past the validation. (more) |

A single Software Development site is a great proposal that will allow to get past some annoying limitations of SO. One example I have stumbled quite a lot is having questions about software architecture decisions which often received the "primarily opinioned based" stigma. By allowing all "tightly-c... (more) |
