Welcome to Codidact Meta!
Codidact Meta is the meta-discussion site for the Codidact community network and the Codidact software. Whether you have bug reports or feature requests, support questions or rule discussions that touch the whole network – this is the site for you.

We now have a couple anti-spam measures in place: In user profiles, when the user has not yet earned Participate Everywhere, we do not render links to anonymous viewers. Logged-in users still...
We have pushed a change that replaces the website and Twitter fields on the profile with three generic label/value pairs. These are shown as "extra fields" on the profile after the profile text. ...
There is no one, over-arching rule across the network. Communities are self-governing (within the limits of what we can host). I agree with this answer. Personally, I think duplicates should be ...
You seem to be interpreting the incubator as the home for all questions that don't fit anywhere else, and also as a primary entry point for people new to Codidact. That's not the goal. The incuba...
To add to Mithical's excellent answer: I'm sorry you've had a bad experience with your first incubator question. Our vision hasn't changed; that statement lays out our goals. That isn't the same...
Well, it was committed to GitHub by the target date, but then things happened... But finally, the accessibility statement and the detailed accessibility guidance are both live in the Help Center o...
We have just posted an official statement from the board of directors. Key part (click through for the whole thing): Companies such as OpenAI and Google are forming partnerships with some organ...
We have added a new flag type for all post types: Generated by AI: This post appears to contain AI-generated content (such as ChatGPT) without attribution This places the focus on the attribu...
I've just tested a small change that would always show your deleted posts on your own profile. Other users (without sufficient privileges) can't see them, as now. Should we always show you your d...
A complaint we've heard a lot is that when a community's front page has many questions that are not well-received, it deters visitors. (It also deters some people who are already here, I know.) T...
We have moved the post date/time and license info to the left side, along with the edit info. This separates the metadata about the post from the information about the user who posted it. We have...
The behavior of the dialogue has now been fixed -- clicking "ok" abandons your changes and returns you to the page you were on, and clicking "cancel" puts you back in the editor (with your changes ...
Tag search is now completed. The help isn't updated yet, but: to use a tag in a search, use the syntax tag:tagname. You can use the - operator with it, same as for other search terms. Searching ...
How granular can data-import be for QPixel (I realize the answer might be different later for Codidact), and can it be done more than once? We know it's possible to import "everything", but which ...
A lot of Codidact's distinctives, as Manasseh notes in comments on another answer, are about how the Codidact team and the community interact -- that communities here have much more control, that t...
Moderators can now see a list of promoted posts and can remove a question from the list there. I acknowledge the imbalance: anyone with the Curate ability can nominate, but only moderators can rem...
For anybody puzzled by the question, the strikethrough that shows there didn't work at the time of posting but does now, because the bug is fixed.
I agree; "roll back to this version" has been useful on other platforms and I'd like us to have it. I think the interface should allow for a rollback reason, like the edit reason, so the explanati...
Found the problem! There'll be a post from ArtOfCode later with more information, but we believe we've now corrected the problem with some votes (cast during the upgrade window) not having been pr...
I've sometimes seen bug reports be answered with workaround while awaiting a fix. I think I've seen that here on Codidact (though I haven't gone looking for examples). I know I saw it sometimes o...
In an ideal world, bug reports and support requests would be a separate stream from discussions and feature requests. We work with the tools we have, while also working to improve them. (A few pe...
We have some early, crude wireframes showing our ideas on comment threading: collapsed threads under a post, expanded thread. Be sure to turn on the comments view. It looks like you need a Figma ...
That topic was meant to be disabled, but we hit a bug. It's gone now. That topic is meant to be an example starting point for people setting up a new site. We'll be making some improvements to th...
This answer builds on Peter's answer (thanks!). I think we need to approach tags along two axes. One is tracking status of proposals, as suggested by Peter. We did this informally when I added "...
I got an error while subscribing to a category and clicked on the "report on meta" link in the message. The link produced another error: The link in the first error message points to https://wr...
