We believe this has been fixed by some other changes made since you reported this. I marked it status-completed based on that, not because I can point to a code change. If you see this again, ple...
We have just launched Linux Systems and Power Users. Both communities have some outstanding scope issues from their proposals, but that's fine: there's enough of a baseline to get started, and the...
We have had some bugs in edit history. Fixes for these bugs apply to future edits, but we don't have a good way to update events that predated the bug fixes. That edit was six months ago and I kn...
Speaking for myself and not the team (I haven't discussed this with anyone else), here are some things I'd like to consider: We shouldn't try to programmatically determine what a "minor" edit ...
I think what you're asking for is (1) better information about votes you're receiving, so you know which posts are being up- or down-voted, and (2) for that information to be available in one place...
I'd like to propose a different way of thinking about the problem (and I agree there are problems here). Some premises: New users don't know how things work, so we need to keep it simple. ...
It's been a while since I asked this question. In the meantime we've launched several communities that weren't transplants from SE, so most of our communities didn't start with "imported moderator...
I agree that distinguishing these kinds of responses from other moderator-only tags would be helpful, and that we don't need to keep doing what we started doing early on when we needed something. ...
Quoting is sometimes necessary for context. Sometimes an answer needs to focus on one part of the question -- one claim, one line of code, etc. Not being able to quote would impede clarity. This...
Yeah, we definitely want to improve that aspect of the profile page. We want to allow you to break posts out by type and also by category -- you shouldn't have to dig through all your Q&A post...
Welcome to Codidact. I'm glad you found your way here. In case you haven't seen it yet, The Codidact Vision lays out, at a high level, what we aspire to build. We put community first, and feedba...
We didn't set out to have a reputation stat, but because we started by adapting code that had it, we started out that way. When we brought up removing it, a few people objected strongly. (See, fo...
There is some amount of subjectivity in evaluating proposals, which is not ideal. It's important for us (all, together) to figure out how we can improve our process. Ultimately we probably need t...
It looks like this has changed; I just saw this: I'm inferring that the ad is now sensitive to the type of post being linked; I'd like to confirm that with the developers before marking this sta...
I want to supplement Mithical's answer, with which I agree. Broadly speaking, Codidact has three major pieces, all essential: its communities, without which none of the rest of this would matte...
There are two aspects to copies, license/attribution and duplication. The CC-BY-SA license doesn't require you to include attribution links for your own work. This is why, on communities with imp...
The comment box is now resizable; drag the control in the lower right corner down to make the area bigger. Because comments can include newlines, wide Unicode characters, and probably other unpred...
Three of Codidact's early communities did large-scale imports of content from Stack Exchange, and at the request of some community members, we added an icon to those questions on question lists. O...
The bug with ads for individual articles is fixed. The ad templates for random posts (at all, or from a specific category) apply some selection criteria, so we don't accidentally promote poorly-re...
This is now fixed for new tag-only edits (example), but we don't have a way to go back and fix older history entries.
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 ...
We don't seem to have active Redditors (people with the track record that would prevent being labeled as spammers), but I'm all for responsible promotion! Do we have within our community an establ...
The scope of the Electrical Engineering community is up to them. If you want to propose changes, you should ask on their meta. We don't impose scope on communities; we allow communities to define...
SE sites (that aren't in beta) have "community ads", which are ads submitted by users on that site for things they think will be of interest to other users on that site. Some use them to promote S...
