I think it would be very handy if users with edit privileges, or at the very least the OP themselves, could move posts between different categories on the same site. This would be particularly han...
I kind of like the idea, especially for outdated/obsolete technology. But I'm concerned over how subjective a "dangerous" mark might end up. For example when it comes to programming, I work with sa...
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 ...
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...
Clicking on the square with an arrow next to the user profile no longer displays the drop-down menu to show other communities. I talking about this one: If I click on the white area around it, t...
I really don't like the change to tags. "...without necessarily being in your face" They need to be in one's face! The way these kind of Q&A sites are designed, tags are super important. They...
We currently have a proposal for a "power user" PC site here: https://meta.codidact.com/posts/278833. It has score 13. And we also have another proposal for a Linux user site here: https:/...
One can apparently not make an edit to a post just to change the tags. There is a message that nothing was changed because I didn't edit the post. Well, I didn't edit the body of the post, just the...
I think this answer by @laserkittens to a community proposal is very interesting. It does not just keep track over how many that are interested, but also a qualified guess over how active the users...
Assuming the favourite tags per community feature gets implemented, then how about some manner of social media-like "feed"/start page? Where all activity involving yourself pops up.A compilation of...
Alternatively, we could just make a policy that it's OK to close vote posts as duplicates even when you are the original author. This was never explicitly forbidden on SE, but sometimes frowned upo...
Some thoughts: A clarification of the term "community" might be needed. My take is that this is meant to be a Codidact network-wide panel. But currently we use the term "communities" as in this l...
If you'll allow me to come up with a made-up dystopia community scenario: Suppose you are a professional carpenter who like to discuss your trade with other professionals. So you start a carpentry ...
This has been proposed before https://meta.codidact.com/posts/74999. My comment then was: I'm a dipl. computer engineer and if you ask me what an "engineering site" is about, I wouldn't be able...
I agree. We could benefit from having: One category for discussing site/network use and features (current Q&A) One category for plain bug reports. One category for support requests and beginne...
I started to write this as a comment in response to @Canina's answer, but realized it's a different proposal on it's own. Bit of brainstorming: A FAQ is not necessarily some help page with everyth...
Lessons learnt from the past I've been at SO pretty much from the start. It is true that SO has sub-communities in a sense. Each major programming language (tag) has their own flavour of slightly d...
I agree, we know from experience that this is useful. "Someplace Else" got this feature and I've used it now and then. Often when you get some "wait a minute..." moment, realizing that you have mis...
I think there needs to be criteria for why a post should end up there. Whom should the post be interesting to? There are two possible different audiences/scenarios: This post is interesting to rea...
It sounds like a feature of very limited use. I agree that it would be neat for Code Golf, where different answers are per definition of "different kinds". I don't really see any use for it on any ...
Issues like this should be flagged for mod attention, not "discussed on meta". There is nothing to discuss & the staff doesn't need input from random users about their "opinions" on the matter....
Related: also maybe blank out the "works for me" option in case you react to your own posts. I can see why someone would want to set some of their own old posts as outdated though.
When trying to access https://codidact.com/ Firefox (93.0) gives me "encoding error, contact the site owners". This appears to have happened just now, as I could use that address fine for less than...
It's "status by design". I made the very same remarks when this feature was released, here: https://meta.codidact.com/posts/282342/282346#answer-282346. Responses from the dev team were: ArtOfC...
Spontaneously, I'd yell "I like this feature too!". Until I start to ponder a bit deeper. Here's the catch: please keep in mind that people may wish to use different accounts for different sites. F...
