Comment Post #278017 @interested - On your original post on Judaism Meta, you received some responses (on a now-deleted question); that's what I was referring to.

Answer A: Would like written chat.
It's currently not feasible to develop a built-in chat system. While we do plan on having an integrated chat at some point in the future, it's not a possibility with the current time and resources available to the development team. We have a Discord server that is used for discussion in the interi...

Answer A: Why are my comments deleted?
First off - comments aren't the proper place for feature requests such as increasing the size of the comment box. For a feature request, please ask a new question. Secondly, your comments were deleted for being not constructive and for being irrelevant to the post at hand. Let's take a look at wha...

Answer A: Why prefer Codidact to Stack Exchange?
There are several differences in the philosophy of Codidact vs. Stack Exchange that may contribute to people preferring CD over SE. For-profit vs non-profit Stack Exchange is a for-profit company. With that in mind, they have to worry about making a profit and monetizing their products; there's...

Comment Post #277998 The [help center](https://meta.codidact.com/help) has some useful information, but may be slightly less useful if you're coming from Stack.

Comment Post #277998 It's worth noting that [user privileges are in the middle of a total rework](https://github.com/codidact/qpixel/pull/132), so things will be changing wrt that relatively soon.

Answer A: Should we use the Article type for bug reports?
Nah. Posting them as questions allows for a more detailed explanation than "fixed" if there's a reason to do so - such as an especially interesting bug, or someone taking the opportunity to explain how certain bits of the system work. Plus, the people who fix the bugs then get the opportunity t...

Comment Post #277945 Currently, [status-planned] is basically equivalent to "it's in the [Trello board](https://trello.com/b/BK4uxLoP/codidact-todo)". A [status-in-progress] would be more equivalent to the yellow in-progress tag on the Trello board, just a lot more public.

Answer A: Please add tooltips for admins / moderator "icons" (characters) in the user list
This is implemented in QPixel Pull Request #171, which has not yet been merged. After this is merged, it'll be live the next time a deploy happens.

Answer A: Posts should have a visible indication whether they've been edited, and when the last edit was made
This is now implemented. Next to the CC license on each post, a pencil icon will appear with the username of whoever last edited the post (if it wasn't the OP) as well as when the edit was made. > Screenshot of an example, showing an edit made about an hour ago by Mithical

Answer A: FR: Meta categories
Meta is its own meta. The entire site is already for meta-discussion of the Codidact network. Since this site is itself part of the network, discussion of Codidact Meta on Codidact Meta itself is fine. While it would be very meta to have a Meta Meta category, I don't think it's necessary to differ...

Comment Post #277348 @MonicaCellio - say, someone discovers that a moderator is actually underage (12 or so); they're not really legally allowed to have an account in that situation.

Comment Post #277336 @MathPhysics - I don't know what license the help center articles on SE are under, but I'm assuming it's not the same as user-generated content, so there could be a legal problem doing that. Also, since we're _different_ from SE, their help center articles won't necessarily work for us. To get what's...

Answer A: The Codidact Help should be more comprehensive and practical
Yep; the Help Center definitely needs some more fleshing out. To that end, I'd like to point you towards this question that I posted a couple months ago: What help pages need to be written? If there are specific topics that you'd like to see covered by a help article, please leave an answer the...

Comment Post #277251 I don't think a rich text editor is going to happen any time soon, but you can post a feature request and it can go onto the list. I'm guessing it's a lot of work to build, though, and not especially high priority, so with the current number of active devs it's unlikely to be implemented any time soo...
