I find the search function slightly too hard to find. I mean, it’s just in the menu, but intuitively, I feel like it should be a little more accessible, immediately visible. Also, we would benefit...
I haven’t seen anyone mention another reason to answer your own questions. I wish I knew a more scientific or technical term for it, but it’s commonly called the Rubber Duck principle, and I utter...
It could be cool to have more accessible chatting for all posts. What if there were a sidebar on every post where there was always a live chat? Unlike SE, you never need to specifically create and ...
Would there ever be a scenario where an experimental feature is tried out with a smaller cohort of users in order to observe the resulting dynamics and compare it to the alternative? I mean more t...
This site: https://proposals.codidact.com/ is not listed here: https://codidact.com/ and I think it should be.
This Help page lists some site policies. What governance system is in place to come to decisions about what the site policies are? This picture displays an organisation structure. It does not...
On Stack Exchange, I spent a significant portion of my time on the site editing posts, because the idea of an SE site as a repository of useful reference information has long appealed to me. Being...
If I insert a URL to a Codidact post, I would like it to display the title of the post as inline text, hyperlinked to the post, without me manually doing that. For example: https://proposals.codid...
Ruby on Rails. The code is hosted on GitHub: https://github.com/codidact/qpixel I do not know what cloud provider it is deployed on.
Here is a redraft and elaboration of what this post is about, partially in response to some comments I've received. This post may be about a few different things at once, and may need to be refact...
The library of Congress classification system gives items both a single class, and multiple subject tags. This system has some significant benefits. Also, their subject tag system has sub-tags - f...
This is not meant to be a committed advocating or request of the following, but rather a conversation to analyze the possibilities and potential benefits and drawbacks. What if the total score for...
It is common nowadays for social technology to include a “feed” of some kind, most usually as the landing page upon logging in. One can without difficulty produce some conventional arguments in fav...
One way I think Codidact could have a big leg up on Stack Exchange would be a more robust notifications system, borrowing from the pre-established template of some other software. For example, on ...
I’m motivated to see a Philosophy site go live. Here is a post detailing how sites are actually established, from three years ago. I’m wondering if that answer can be updated to be more actionable,...
How would people feel about a network-wide convention of abbreviated URLs having the form, https://<topic>.cd? For example, a shortened URL for a philosophy site would be https://philosophy....
Is AI content banned, or allowed if attributed to an AI? Are there further contextual rules regarding AI, for example, how much of a post may consist of AI-composed content? Will the justificatio...
I am starting to strongly lean towards that votes should pretty much always come with explanations. I wonder if it is not such a radical change in system design to replace the universal or generic ...
This is just a hypothetical idea I’d like to share. I sometimes feel the bar has been set very low in how people conduct themselves on forums, since we are used to places like Reddit, and compared...
I personally am open to the idea of treating comments here exactly as we treat posts. Since they can be quite long, we should be able to vote, suggest edits, etc, as a way of facilitating that Codi...
Seeing as Codidact is sort of an opportunity to do things a little differently than Stack Exchange, I was wondering how people feel in general about certain things about Stack Exchange, which we mi...
I wish to open a theoretical conversation on some aspects of the site policies regarding AI. I do this purely out of an inherent interest in deep, rigorous, clear, and self-consistent argumentation...
I am interested in the idea that an extremely modular software architecture for Codidact could have the kind of general, self-propagating benefits that things like being free open-source have. To m...
I just felt like saying that the Discourse forum software is quite good quality, and it also has some interesting examples of new forum features not commonly seen elsewhere. For example, on the Ope...
