Question Where’s my suggested edit?
I made an edit to a post on Software.codidact, and because I don’t have the Ability to edit, it says it’s pending a review. However, I was a bit surprised to see that it was still pending after more than a day, so I went to look at the pending queue and it’s not there. I also checked the “decided” li...

Question Seeing deleted posts
I was browsing around Judaism.codidact, and I came across the System user. Looking at it’s profile, I noticed that I can see it has some deleted posts, but when I click on them I get a 404. Is this intended behavior?

Question Allow OP to self-close questions
After I asked a question, it was pointed out in the comments that it may possibly be a duplicate of another question. I was inclined to agree and wanted to close it. However, the only option I see[^1] is to delete the question, which in my humble understanding should not be done in such a situation. ...

Answer A: Can the title of the question be a "clean" link to the question itself?
I am not opposed to having a clear and readily accessible “clean” link, but I would prefer it not be the question title. Sometimes I want to copy the question title, and having to play with it to get around the hyperlink was one of the annoyances (to me, anyway) of Somewhere Else.

Comment Post #280116 @Monica Cellio Yes, one was a suggested edit. However, I recall the other one (a comment) also getting 404ed, but now it links properly so it’s probably just me misremembering.

Question Notification links are broken
I recently made a few posts across multiple sites here, and I got responses to all of them, which all appeared in my inbox (this is normal and expected, of course). But then I clicked on them, and I was directed to the 404 landing page. It appears that the links provided by the notifications are r...

Question Make closing dropdown menus easier
I've noticed this both on mobile and on desktop, that in order to close a dropdown menu, you must click on the button that opened it. I think it would make for a much better user experience to be able to close it just by clicking elsewhere on the screen.

Question How to edit tags?
I want to edit some tag information, but I don't see an option to edit it on the tag page. I understand that I don't have the Edit Tags Ability, but I think I should be able to suggest edits (how else would I get that Ability?). Perhaps I missed it, but where is the option to edit tag info?

Comment Post #279874 I would say perhaps a subset of WSL questions might be on topic, but specifically those that are still within the Linux aspect of it. For example, “how to run GUI programs in WSL?” requires a working knowledge of Windows, but not so much of Linux.

Comment Post #276995 I’ve been using Linux as my primary OS for over two years, so I might be able to help with answering some questions, but I’d definitely lurk around and read.

Question Remember me when logging in with Mobile Sign In
When logging in with a password, there is an option to remain logged in. However, when using the QR code to login on mobile, this option isn't available, making logging in with the QR code more cumbersome than logging in with a password. Can this option be added to the QR code too?

Question Allow discarding of drafts
Currently, when editing a post the system will automatically save a draft for you after a short period of inactivity. This draft will then be loaded again if you leave the page and return, even if you clicked 'Cancel' when editing a post. This is counter-intuitive. If I cancelled an edit, it means...
