We had this discussion over at Software Development: Should we allow answers generated by ChatGPT? The general consensus so far seem to be that such answers shouldn't be allowed. Mostly because th...
Codidact started as an attempt to make something better/different than SE. When it was started, pretty much everyone involved shared a consensus about what it should not be: Not run by a private...
I just noticed that any help center on any site has lots of duplicate links below "About Codidact" and "Legal". The same links are listed 2 times in a row. I get this on every single Codidact comm...
status-completed a different way: thread page now has expanders for the post and, if it's an answer, also the question. This provides the missing context without having to go through the extra has...
The main, temporary problem across the network right now is that most sites are young and all fundamental tags that ought to exist for a given community are not necessarily created yet. Meaning th...
The reason why this wasn't added on SO is because lots of people already struggle to use correct formatting for emphasis, using code formatting, quote format and weird crap like that. It's kind of ...
I did some further research and it appears that this was caused by corrupted cookies/browser cache in Firefox. I deleted all Codidact cookies, restarted the browser and now the problem is gone.
At this early stage I think you'll simply have to give out the privilege manually to users per community, similar as to how we've gotten temporary moderators in place. Given that they are active us...
I just had an incorrect "user wasn't notified because they haven't participated in the discussion" warning (I can't recall the exact wording). What I did: Responded to a comment here: https://m...
It just occurred to me as I was looking at Hot Posts at Software Development that it would be helpful to include the tags with the title, so that people can judge if that post is interesting and/or...
Question closure can leave people feeling judged (as we learned Somewhere Else) ...counter the impression that duplicates are bad To solve that problem, one needs to address the source. Somew...
Great feature, I've been looking forward to this! Some thoughts: Expand/collapse with a little + or arrow etc to the left of the comment is probably a more intuitive GUI to most users (?). ...
There are 3 non-related things we might want to keep track of or reward: user activity - the user is active on the site moderator suitability - the user does user moderator tasks domain knowledge ...
Migrating questions between sites never worked well in practice. We have a lot of experience about this from SE's various experiments: there was rarely ever a successfully migrated post but countle...
One answer per choice works pretty well. Check out how we rolled out proposals for scope at Software Development: https://software.codidact.com/posts/278648 There we went by voting, consensus can ...
Regarding the "5 second google" part: We did discuss this very thing at some point over at Software Development Questions easily answered by studying a beginner-level book. There were lots of dive...
It just occurred to me that it would be nice to have a "spam" reaction feature, to mark a post as potentially harmful while waiting for moderators to delete it. Benefits: Prevent other users fr...
When sorting posts by tag, the tag usage part pops up as expected, but also the whole tag wiki. So when you actually start writing a proper tag wiki for a tag, anyone who wants to see posts under t...
It's not that kind of product - it's not tooth paste or Coca Cola. Random advertising to random people is unlikely to increase site activity. Advertising needs to be directed to those who are inte...
Your question "how to get a display out of the frame of a consumer product" doesn't have anything to do with electronics. For the same reason as asking how to get a shelf out of your fridge has not...
Just got a notification about a comment in my inbox. It leads to a 403 forbidden error page, so I believe I might either be lacking some privilege to view it, or maybe the post got deleted within m...
We should hope that different communities have different moderation standards. On SE it was a huge problem that users started applying the standards from one community onto others. The majority of ...
I'm assuming that self-answered Q&A is fine and on-topic in most communities - if not, open for discussion below. "That other site" got a little check box which you can use upon posting a quest...
Some background: A discussion about deleting/preserving comments and giving user feedback popped up on Software Development meta here: How are we supposed to give feedback for poor questions if su...
If you write a long comment close to 500 characters, then edit it and go beyond 500, you get no notification that the comment is now too long. The letter counter isn't present during edit and when ...
