Historical note: When this post was written, we planned to use the QPixel software as a stopgap while building a new Codidact platform from scratch. That's not what we ended up doing. Since early ...
On a list of questions or posts, each entry has a "last activity" indicator showing who last changed it and when. Would it be possible to have "last activity" be a link to the post that changed? ...
We have posted our default policy for generative-AI content. It's more of a clarification than an actual change; as pointed out in another answer, representing Chat-GPT or any other content that yo...
The team has made some improvements to search, including the following new options (taken from the search help): filtering by user If you want to search for posts written by a particular user...
We have some software (but not software-development) proposals: "Superuser-like" community for software applications office suites Linux Are these three separate, distinct commu...
You own your posts and are free to do with them as you choose, including posting them in more than one place -- here, Stack Exchange, Quora, Reddit, etc. By posting on Codidact you grant us a lice...
We have just pushed some updates related to tags. You will now see a "tags" link in the category bar (next to "posts"), which leads to a searchable list of all tags. Selecting an individual tag t...
I think a system where sites can somehow nominate questions for broader publicity would be helpful, but I don't think we want to repeat the mistakes SE made with hot network questions. We've talke...
Currently, marking a question as a duplicate is part of question closure. Duplicates are a little different from other close reasons, though -- often the question itself is clear, complete, and o...
I'm photosensitive and bright white backgrounds bother me too. Dark-mode themes tend to fail me in other ways, so I usually try to soften the bombardment of bright white pixels instead. In case i...
I would love for Codidact to have an entry on Wikipedia and, particularly, for it to be linked in this list of Q&A platforms. Wikipedia has notability requirements that must be met before they...
Software: QPixel is publicly available so that sounds good but for the Codidact flavor of QPixel additional parts must be assembled to create the software this network runs on. How many persons k...
We generally attempt to contact users. We can't guarantee that the address originally provided still works, or that our message won't be filtered by your email provider, but we do make the attempt...
Today I saw the following question on Software Dev (this is the beginning): (rest of post...) The title, "connect with SLOT/SIGNAL:QPushButton clicked signal not received by main window" sounds li...
October 2024 The user profile now includes the "all communities" tab, which links to all of the user's profiles on the network. Along with each link it shows the total number of posts and rep...
Partial answer, which I hope to flesh out later (but probably won't have time today): I hope that people will ask questions here, regardless of whether they've been asked elsewhere, when someone h...
Several discussions have touched on the idea of being able to filter the contents of the post list. Whether your goal is to find unanswered questions, hide closed questions, hide ignored tags, or ...
I'm sorry if I didn't make the purpose of these posts clear enough. We are asking each individual community to talk about those communities. We're not looking for general suggestions like "use Re...
It sounds like we want to temporarily revoke a person's ability to make lots of posts when recent quality is an issue. The Participate Everywhere ability allows one to post without limit. Nominal...
Our initial communities will almost certainly be groups of users from SE communities. A mature community should choose its own moderators and those are the people who can speak for the community w...
I am starting to think about user preferences. This won't happen for a while, but I'd like to gather input so we can start thinking about a functional design. Currently a user has a single account...
