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...
One major problem with changing the license on a post after the fact is that it affects not just the original contribution, but also every change to that post made by others; in your proposed case,...
When using the search feature in the Tags part of each category, if one searches for something that is an exact match for just one single tag, the page returned lists just that one tag. To get to t...
Someone at Cloudflare doesn't particularly like Tor. And because Codidact is apparently hosted behind Cloudflare, that means that by extension, Codidact is at least moderately anti-Tor in practice,...
Changing the license of a post after the fact is not currently supported. Limited support for license changes has been discussed, but doesn't currently seem to be slated for implementation. Curren...
Adding to the previous answer, your use case is, in your own words I sat in the bus and wanted to ask something without logging in Realistically, if someone can't be bothered to take the brie...
In this case, an image really is worth a thousand words: That links to the question What sound did the letter ℵ encode in ancient Hebrew, and why did it morph into the greek vowel Α? The origin...
There's a link right there, if you look under "The community I want isn't here!" Proposals isn't intended to be a full-fledged community in its own right; it's intended to be a place where it can ...
For a while today, I got DNS resolution failures for collab.codidact.org. Now I'm getting a certificate hostname mismatch error; the certificate presented is for catchall-server-default.s449.sures...
Key idea #2: filters can be defined, named, and reused, and we'll provide some built-in ones. "Unanswered questions" seems like one that would be popular, for example. And if you want to refine t...
There's a post on the Judaism front page titled Meor eynayim by de rossi by "deleted user" (which looks to actually be a deleted user, since that links to # rather than an actual user profile). Fo...
I added a comment just now to an existing thread to a question on Power Users. Clicking "Add reply", the response was a "500 Server Error" page with the page title "Power Users - Internal Server E...
Something caused posting an answer to fail for me (the web interface just sat there, the "Save Post" button disabled, but nothing further happened). To recover, I copied the text of the answer into...
It's possible to view the differences between two adjacent, existing revisions of a post through the History feature. Post owners can, of course, make arbitrary edits to posts, save those, and see...
should there be some way for people (maybe just the specific answerer, or maybe for everyone) to see that the person who originally asked upvoted their answer? No! As already pointed out, thi...
If a code block has longer lines than will fit within the width of the code block, there is no indication that this is the case, nor any obvious way to scroll horizontally. For an example, see dig ...
This has been a recurring problem for me. Sometimes (far from always, but far too often to be comfortable), when I click the notification dropdown "inbox" icon, it simply fails to open; the elemen...
The number of /.../ posts edited by the user This information is already basically available. Fair enough, it's not the number of posts edited, but the number of edits made. If you open a user's ...
The number of /.../ people reached I disagree that this would be a useful piece of information. Yes, I know that Some Other Q&A network displays such a number; relatively prominently, even. I...
I'm honestly not sure what is going on here. Once I'm logged in to a Codidact site, if I click "sign out" in the top right corner of each page, I get signed out -- which is exactly what you'd expec...
With the recently added article post type (used to share recipes on Cooking), the URL to the post is /articles/nnnnn (where nnnnn is the post ID), or /ar instead of /articles for shorter links. How...
I'm not familiar with Reddit. Still, reasoning generally: "nobody ever sees my submitted link" doesn't imply that the behavior isn't in violation of the rules there, let alone that the behavior is...
This is my suggestion for how to implement hobbling of users who consistently post low-quality content. For a final decision, when a user saves a post: First, look at their most recent post of ...
I realize that this might be a bit of a niche use case, but I'm going to put it out here anyway. The availability of 2FA via an authenticator app is a great boost to account security. However, th...
In this particular case, I would be inclined to disagree: the question has been answered before. It's just that the answer is actually given in a comment and a tag, not an answer post. "Can we get...
