@OlinLathrop Right, and this isn't a site proposal. It's a weird policy-ish question which probably should've been tagged [support] but it's still not a site proposal. (more) |

If you have people willing to back the proposal, that's great! :) However, I'll have to close this as dupe, please post an *answer* or *comment* on the other page if you want to further that proposal. (more) |

@DonielF nor am I implying so. However, we still need to address community overlap somehow, I merely noted that lyric and poetry was also in scope on Writing and thought about what to do about it. (more) |

@Lundin "I don't think such questions belong on Writing at all, except maybe if the question is about writing lyrics yourself." That's pretty much what I was going for. Though I would also exclude stuff like analysis of lyrics (for English) or translation requests (for non-English). A separate catego... (more) |

| Comment | Post #278890 |
For analysis of lyrics, I think that it would be better suited for Writing (the closely related poetry is explicitly allowed, and there's a [lyrics tag](https://writing.codidact.com/categories/1/tags/151) there as well). For rhythm/meter/rhyme, I'm kind of torn - I feel like it'd fit on both sites (s... (more) |

While I do agree that it probably shouldn't be allowed, I don't see how it's "dehumanising" for the person involved (after all, they chose that username). And it's not like other usernames make it any less difficult to put together a mental image of the person. (more) |

@Razeltime Yeah, the library the preview uses is different from the library the server uses, which results in those odd disparities where you *think* something looks right but actually the server creates something else. (more) |

This could even be a per-category setting - ex. on Software, the hover text would probably be different for the main Q&A and for Code Review. (more) |

@Dani I went by the "main idea", that is, they would be happy for a follow feature but their actual request (as stated in the title) is for an RSS feed. (more) |

Reopened, this is a request for an rss feed. The other post is about getting notifications. While similar in purpose, one can be implemented without the other request being fulfilled so I don't see them as duplicates (more) |

Thanks for your hard work! a couple comments: 1. Maybe y'all should consider making a shared team account for these posts. At least for me, it was kind of weird having "an interview with one of the Codidact leads" instead of "an interview with me" (as the interviewee, you, is the "author" of the post... (more) |

"sometimes it's really hard to know who this user was before changing names." The solution, of course, is to display the user id immediately after the username, that way you can just mem people's ids ;) (more) |

@manassehkatz It's a suggestion for a name though, I doubt people will first think of it as "code(v.) games" and will actually take as "code(n.) games" unless they really contrive to do so (more) |

The current implementation of abilities (on dev) shows earned abilities publicly, so there isn't really a need for badges in that case.
As for domain knowledge, if there's no technical reason to have tag "badges" (ex on SE it gives close rights for questions under that specific tag), then I would ... (more) |

@manassehkatz I can see your point, though I personally don't associate "Coding Challenges" with "unanswered problems in Computer Science". I basically just used "Coding Challenges" as the shortening of "Code Golf and Coding Challenges", but there are always other options (Programming Puzzles might b... (more) |

Therefore, we might actually want to split code golf off from other types of challenges. My revised suggestion would be having code golf as a specific post type in the Challenges category, and enabling the leaderboard for just that one. I'm not sure how feasible that would be though. (more) |

| Comment | Post #278608 |
"Challenges would be in their own category ... a separate category means the leaderboard would only need to be enabled there." An automated leaderboard really would only work for Code Golf (where there is an easy score for any submission); King of the Hill, Cops & Robbers, and other host defined scor... (more) |

@MonicaCellio Interesting. I asked that because I don't think a code golf community would need a Q&A category - anything that isn't a challenge or a sandbox post would be Meta, no? (more) |

"Golf challenges would be in their own category (there are other types of questions)."
Will you also make a category for King of the Hill, Cops and Robbers, etc.? I feel like it'd get out of hand quickly. Why not just use tags? (more) |

@OlinLathrop It's a standard and expected setting if the site tracks last seen times.
@MonicaCellio Me neither, but the point here wasn't to debate the merits of tracking last seen times but just to point out that it should be a user preference. (more) |
