Added idea for email alerts
  • I stopped using a former Q&A Network of Sites because of their poor political choices.
  • Before I left, I noticed a number of people who also objected to those politics renaming their usernames to ${FormerName}Reinstate${Someone} where $FormerName was their former username, and $Someone was a person who was most aggregiously violated by their politics.
  • So I'd recommend we all stop contributing on the former network, and change our usernames there to ${FormerName}MovedToCodidact or ${FormerName}LeftSEForCodidact

  • SECOND IDEA: Email notifications.
  • I use email as a task list of sorts, and it would help me be more productive and participate here more if I could get en email notice when there was a reply/answer/comment on a topic I was interested in. Maybe some degree of batching would be nice once this community gets more prominent, but email alerts please!

I stopped using a former Q&A Network of Sites because of their poor political choices.

Before I left, I noticed a number of people who also objected to those politics renaming their usernames to ${FormerName}Reinstate${Someone} where $FormerName was their former username, and $Someone was a person who was most aggregiously violated by their politics.

So I'd recommend we all stop contributing on the former network, and change our usernames there to ${FormerName}MovedToCodidact or ${FormerName}LeftSEForCodidact
