@pnuts It is something that only moderators or high-level users would see. But Meta Q&A is the place for that too. (more) |

@pnuts That would certainly help. But my idea is to make it so that anyone looking at the page can instantly see open vs. closed questions. Personally, I usually want to see **both** but just want to be able to pick out the different types easily as I am reading the list. (more) |

I just had a suggested edit in https://judaism.codidact.com/questions/276891#answer-276893 It took me a while to see what typo was being corrected because the highlighting wasn't working. After I Approved the suggested edit, I went to History and there the changes were very clear. So there is one pie... (more) |

I can't reproduce the problem. In both Firefox and Edge, I start writing an Answer, upload an image. Add a little more text. Try and save, get the Alt Text warning. Save anyway. It works. (more) |

It seems to me that the simple fix for this is to include a very short statement about it at the top of per-site Metas and a bold/warning/reminder statement about it when Asking a question on per-site Meta. That should take care of *most* people who either don't know there is Meta.Codidact or don't k... (more) |

Well, the question/comments here contain enough text to have filled up "alt text" for dozens of images. You can always get lazy with "Figure 1, see text" (more) |

*alt text* is highly recommended and serves multiple purposes, including:
* provide information to those can't view the image (you'd be amazed how many blind people browse the web),
* provide a preview for those who don't load images automatically - i.e., so they know whether they should bother t... (more) |

The specifics will depend on how things evolve. I know in many places (in the real world), for example, Hebrew gets lumped with some Asian languages. Why? Because they're written funny? Because they are not European? I don't know. Sometimes groupings come out of strange places. I think the best thing... (more) |

Well, I came up with an example that's closer to reality, though in the "gadget" mode more than the "advanced circuit design" mode that I know EE is striving for. (more) |

*Can someone please explain the reasoning behind "In the first election, the three members with the lowest vote scores shall be elected for one-year terms only." (Article 1).

I'm also in Firefox and it definitely was broken and yet now it seems to work - slight "blink" on click of "more comments" and then the links reappear. @ArtOfCode - Have you been busy fixing things again? (more) |

The changes are just cat**a**gory/ies to cat**e**gory/ies. However, the issue of the diff page not working properly is a real one that I have noticed myself. (more) |

as well. If a group of people want to spin up their own site, either to host a "private" group or in order to have policies that differ from ours, they can still come here to post bug reports or feature requests, and then update their own instance from the master instance on Github when changes are i...

It is more than just "an account on another site". Some existing users, and I expect *many* future users, will be relatively non-technical types. They may be experts on photography or cooking but not programmers/developers. As such, posting to Meta will be easy (same as the communities they are using... (more) |

Not to complain, but....it would really be nice if either this was a true **filter** (i.e., only shows "Native" when you click that button, rather than simply sorting) or if there were some indication (tag-like "native" or "imported" or some symbol?) so that when I scroll down through the "Native" li...

*You can't just tell people that the site doesn't work with the browser that came with their computer.* Well, you **can**. It just isn't recommended for a general-public site. I have done that for customer-specific (e.g., internal systems, even if accessed over the public internet) stuff. (more) |

Worth testing (if I get a chance, I'll test it myself, like I did with the image problem) in multiple browsers. I have found each browser handles different things faster - I have one customer where their major application *mostly* works fastest, by far, in Chrome, but one piece works fastest, by far,...

I know this sounds like a geek-hates-Microsoft answer, but seriously: **Can you try the exact same thing in Chrome or Firefox?** We have had some other reports of other issues, and that is my standard answer (I do this for a living, really) when my customers tell me something doesn't work in IE or Ed...

I once worked on a project where another vendor supplied what was supposed to be a black box - interface purely via modem via API - but there were times I dealt directly with it (sort of...). It had **both** a Windows "embedded" computer and a smaller (perhaps microcontroller, depends on how you defi... (more) |

There likely **will** be migration between communities at some later time. However, that is one of the less critical features, at least until we have a lot of communities! Yes, different engineering domains could be categories within a general engineering site, but that might be a bit too much in one... (more) |

For those not familiar with the situation that prompted this question, the user in question has not, AFAIK, actually registered their user on writing.codidact.com. Rather, there is a presumed user whose content was bulk imported (along with lots of other content) from SE. Said user has complained on ... (more) |

While all of our communities will use the same policies, other instances might use different policies (therefore, don't *hardcode the policies or links*) and might even use different policies for different communities within an instance (therefore must be *per community*).

Much better - more focused. Effectively "Pi/Arduino/etc." Which is a broad enough topic to draw in (hopefully) enough experts & enthusiasts, but small enough to not become overly broad.

"open source" gets a bit confusing here. As I understand it, the whole Arduino design is itself "open source", whereas in some other systems the hardware and/or software may be open source or may be proprietary or may be freely distributed but not "open source". A lot of variations. It sounds like "o... (more) |

This sounds **much** more general. So the key I see is deciding whether this is "tiny systems" (Arduino, Pi, etc.)-centric (as the initial proposal seems to imply) or "any electronic projects" as this answer seems to indicate. (more) |

IIRC, the original design of what is now the Meta logo included some smaller versions for favicon and similar purposes. However, since writing.codidact.com also does not have a favicon, there may be an issue with the qpixel software. OTOH, it may be possible for @ArtOfCode to simply put a favicon fil... (more) |
