I'm wondering how the site header colors are picked for the different sites. For example, Photography & Video and Mathematics are both purple; Judaism and Music are both yellow or light brown; ...
I just had to go into my account preferences and turn autosave off again because it somehow had been reset to on. I know that I went through all Codidact communities a while back (maybe a month or...
This use case is already covered by reactions. The set of reactions available is community-specific, and I think is also per category. If you feel a reaction is missing but would be useful, bring ...
I want to question the premise of this question. In the title, you wrote: Is it okay to ask a question because you're too lazy/bored to figure it out yourself? but in the question body, you ...
(Please note that at the time this answer was posted, revision 4 of the question was current. That revision of the question, as the initial revision, had as its first paragraph "I think that the we...
This looks similar to my previous bug report "Body is too short" error when posting middle-click-pasted answer with no changes, and I wouldn't be surprised if the fix is the same. When on the thre...
You don't. At least not as you discuss here. (There is the possibility of answers to a question in one community having relevance to a different question asked on another community; that's a separa...
Should I be able to see the suggested edit? I would suggest not. It's better to interact with the post in its current state, whatever that is; doing so makes it much clearer after the fact wha...
Mathematics Codidact was launched almost two weeks ago now, but it still isn't listed on the Codidact front page or in the page footer. Could it be added?
I think those HTML tags get stripped by the server-side rendering, but I do agree that having some minimal such formatting capabilities would be helpful. <sub>, <sup> and maybe a few ot...
I get what you're saying. I've wanted the same feature occasionally, because I think it's nice to see at a glance which posts people like, and which posts people dislike (or, in the intermediate ca...
You can already get something somewhat kinda-sorta similar to what you're asking for, but you have to work a little to set it up and it's not actually integrated into the Codidact UI. The key is th...
I would actually argue against this. User annotations should, as a rule of thumb, be immutable. If they can be edited, then they can be changed after the fact such that they no longer reflect the...
Administrator. If you hover (or, if you're on mobile, however you display the span title attribute), it'll show a tooltip "Administrator". (I tried to make a screenshot, but for whatever reason can...
I agree that showing just the first five comments is a little on the low end in many cases. I don't think blindly increasing this to "the first ten", or to "all", is the correct solution, however....
When linking directly to an answer, that answer is shown at the top of the answers section and just now, a notice was added to inform the user of this. The phrasing of that notice, however, seems ...
When clicking "edit" for a comment, the character count is initially shown as "0 / 255", with apparent disregard for the length of the comment. Making a change, the actual character count is updat...
At the top of the complete list of posts for a user (accessible through the user's profile) there are two sort buttons, "Score" and "Age". When sorting by "score" is selected, the "Score" button h...
I noticed that there are now suddenly two permalink-target links in comments. From a question page (on a comment posted by another user): From a comment thread page (this particular comment hap...
We don't care about /.../ edit history. I'm going to disagree here, actually. Edits can be substantial in their own right, introducing new content from users other than the original author of the...
Consider, strictly as an example, the question updating a function within a struct on Software Development. There's a reasonable number of programming languages where something like that might be ...
This is a bit weird. I spotted a typo in an answer of mine, and figured I'd fix it. I was able to edit the answer, but when I tried to save the edit, I got a page telling me there had been an int...
I just noticed that URLs in category feed should match URLs on category front page doesn't look quite like I remembered it. As I recall, I edited that question just before abilities was introduced...
The page describing the Vote on Holds ability, under "What does this ability allow me to do?", has what appears to be unrendered Markdown: The reasons for placing a post on hold vary from site t...
The category questions list page (including each site's front page) uses the shorter URL paths, such as /q/1234, to link to posts (usually questions, but sometimes articles). However, the category ...
