FR: send a notification when one of one's question is closed.
FR: Could Codidact provide a data dump (e.g., an archive with all QA, comments, etc.)? Could be hosted on https://archive.org/ if need to save money.
FR: Use the Escape key to close pop-ups. Example of pop-ups:
A specific question that was just submitted, doesn't render its body except for when previewing the post during editing. It's not rendered on the question page, not on the comment page, nor is the ...
Bug: Uploading an image results in a new page containing the image link (instead of adding those images in the current post). E.g.: {"link":"https://meta.codidact.com/uploads/i4ulmix61u43mgf0sn1c...
FR: start username autocompletion after typing 1 char after @. Current behavior: username autocompletion starts after typing 3 chars after @, e.g.:

Currently, acting on a notification's item closes the notification menu, which makes it impossible to open all notifications in new tabs without having to reopen the notification menu. The only wa...
Feature request: Don't move the cursor at the end of the post when an image is being uploaded.
FR: Add an "edit comment" button without having to view the whole comment thread. E.g., in: I'd like to have an "edit comment" button without having to view the whole comment thread.
UI Bug: The border of the post title input box is red even when the title is under 151 characters when pasting the title. Animated screen recording
That'd be great if, when editing or creating a new post, ctrl+enter would save it.
Another use case: creating a data dump of the website. Any format is fine, but that'd be good to include as much information as possible (comments, deleted posts, etc.).
I was drafting a comment on answer and during that I marked the answer as "works for me": that resulted in the comment draft getting lost. FR: Don't discard the current comment draft when marking ...

FR: order communities in the menu based on rep or post numbers. Currently I don't know how it's order but I never post on the community in rank 1 (writing) so the order seems suboptimal:
FR: hide posting tips. Rationale: take too much space:
FR: Being able to copy-paste texts and images at once. I.e., selecting some text and images from another source and pasting all that at once into the Codidact editor. E.g. images can be icons/butt...
Allow pasting images directly into the editor. I.e., if an image is in the clipboard, ctrl+V would add it into the editor. That'd save a lot of time.
