An alternative would be to remove the list altogether. There is already an "Other communities" link in the footer that links to the full list on codidact.com and the communities in the list are als...
Good idea, not just for closed questions I like the idea of hiding the sorting buttons when they serve no purpose. I see no reason to restrict this to closed questions. If the visibility of the so...
I like this idea, but I wonder if it should be optional. For the link to search results that you mention, that sounds sufficiently unobtrusive that perhaps it wouldn't need to be optional. I think...
Now that there is a separate Proposals site with its own Meta and other categories, that would seem to qualify as a separate "Codidact Community" which should be listed among the "Other Codidact ...
Comments allow some Markdown features such as numbered and bullet point lists, code blocks, and quote blocks. They also allow MathJax in communities for which it is enabled. A rendered comment can ...
When a comment thread is expanded, the width of the post it is attached to in some cases increases. This seems to be rare (most posts do not change width when their comment threads are expanded), s...
Another option is to not use button styling in the bar at all. The "Ask Question" button can become another tab along with "Posts", "Tags", and "Edits": This is my personal preference as it simp...
I would argue that this feature should be opt out, rather than opt in. That is, everyone should receive email for their notifications (answers to their questions or comments on their posts) unless ...
I recently added an image to my user profile as an experiment. In the edit preview this showed in full, but after saving it shows on my profile with a vertical scroll bar and the bottom section of ...
From the Review Suggested Edit page there is a button to "Return to post" which links back to the post on which the edit is being suggested: This makes sense, as one of the places a reviewer may...
In the edit history for a post, the initial version is labelled "Initial revision" even though it is not a revision. What would make more sense here? Initial post? Initial version? Initial wor...
When a post has been deleted, it shows a notice explaining its situation: This notice says: Users with the Curate privilege may vote to undelete (emphasis mine) However, the button below ...
When viewing my own user profile (not anyone else's) there is a button below the profile content called "Mobile Sign In": This does the same as the Mobile Sign In button in the page header: I...
I'm curious about the list of "Hot Posts" shown in the right hand panel of Codidact pages. So here are some completely unimportant questions that I'm intrigued to know more about: How is the lis...
The title for a specific question page (displayed in the browser tab) shows the community name followed by the question title: This means that only the first word or two of the question title ar...
I entered the following markdown into an answer I posted recently: ### ImageMagick > <p style="color:red">An error occurred while installing rmagick (4.2.6), and Bundler cannot continue....
I've been looking at the Codidact Communities Discord channels (see the join us in chat link in the right hand panel of this page). Is it possible for Codidact Communities Discord users to create ...
Tags should be at the top In addition to the possibility of navigating to the question from somewhere other than the questions list (which means I haven't seen the tags), I'd also find it useful t...
Editing a question For editing a question, I see no particular advantage to either approach, so my opinion will be motivated by the advantages and disadvantages when editing an answer. Editing an...
Note: This is not related to the recent code release - I noticed this before that. The panels that appear when clicking on the Notifications or Communities buttons at the top right of the page a...
On a specific question page, the t shortcut brings up a list of options for the question or one of its answers (depending on which is currently selected): On the questions list page, the t short...
Just to let you know: The new d keyboard shortcut mentioned in Recent feature changes to the Codidact software doesn't appear to be present yet. Keyboard shortcut d opens the dashboard Press...
I posted this feature request because I'd like to see the option to sort by Age, for those occasions where I'd find it useful or interesting. I definitely do not want to change the default sorting...
I like the "Random from Category" and "Specific post" ad templates. I've recently been a "selfish sharer" and used the "Specific post" template to share one of my own questions. This made me wonde...
I recently changed my username on a site where I used to post coding challenges years ago, to make it clearer that I no longer post there (as I still occasionally receive comments that I may not se...
