2014/12/24 | 498 | 1,861 | <issue_start>username_0: I want to share a list of iOS apps that allow customizing font sizes:
* either through support of DynamicType / LargerText system settings
* or have their own settings for font size
(similar to ["How to make text appear larger in various apps in OS X"](https://apple.stackexchange.com/question... |
2015/01/01 | 935 | 3,727 | <issue_start>username_0: The dawn of a new year, 2015, now approaches, or has already approached, either way it means that it is now time to reset our Community Promotion Ads!
### What are Community Promotion Ads?
Community Promotion Ads are community-vetted advertisements that will show up on the main site, in the r... |
2015/02/04 | 819 | 3,193 | <issue_start>username_0: I just went through my flags and saw that some were declined with the following reason:

2015/02/04 | 728 | 2,900 | <issue_start>username_0: Does that mean I already raised it on this particular post but forgot, or that I've used up my day's ration of this type of flag?
… or something else?
I've seen it twice today, but wasn't paying close enough attention to what may have caused it. I certainly didn't think I'd raised enough fl... |
2015/02/19 | 640 | 2,615 | <issue_start>username_0: We've had several questions where someone is asking for mailing and/or sharing of files. Here is the latest:

2015/02/24 | 548 | 2,161 | <issue_start>username_0: I'm seeing what appear to be commercial advertisements on the site which are not included in the [roll of 2015 community promotion ads](https://apple.meta.stackexchange.com/questions/2318/community-promotion-ads-2015).

2015/03/09 | 654 | 2,198 | <issue_start>username_0: As you can see, Ask Different community site got a slight design update today. I have moved site's CSS to a newly refactor LESS system, so it's easier for us to fix SE network CSS bugs globally going on forward. Also I've updated site's logo and icons to SVG for retina support. Visually it shou... |
2015/03/10 | 805 | 3,343 | <issue_start>username_0: I gave an answer to this question: [Install Xcode without admin](https://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/173841/install-xcode-without-admin/176141)

2015/03/12 | 1,040 | 3,802 | <issue_start>username_0: I imagine we'll be seeing a lot of questions on this over the coming months.
Do we have a consensus on whether it would be on or off-topic until then?
It doesn't appear to require any NDA, so we wouldn't be breaking any agreements on that front, but it's beta so it might be all 'broken to hec... |
2015/03/12 | 399 | 1,500 | <issue_start>username_0: Does a poster get notified if an edit is made to an answer, or should I add a comment to prompt?<issue_comment>username_1: The OP should get a notification whenever a non-trivial edit is made to a post.
Upvotes: 1 <issue_comment>username_2: Edits that other people make to posts which are yours ... |
2015/03/23 | 546 | 2,168 | <issue_start>username_0: I posted an answer to a question earlier and attached a screenshot, then almost immediately realised that my screenshot contained sensitive information that I'd missed (in this case my personal e-mail addresses).
Had I edited my answer, there would still have been a link to the old image (whic... |
2015/03/23 | 145 | 513 | <issue_start>username_0: I created this account when I asked a question. Now the header at the top says "Stack Exchange" and there is a red rectangle with the number 9; hovering over it says I have 9 unread messages in my Inbox.
So how the hell do I get to the inbox?<issue_comment>username_1: Click on the number "9" i... |
2015/03/25 | 3,294 | 10,787 | <issue_start>username_0: Where can we store a list of questions that are considered canonical?
Canonical means that it's asked frequently enough to warrant an excellent clear and detailed answer that the site edits and maintains so that it's broad, clear and helps many people troubleshoot or solve a common issue or mi... |
2015/04/02 | 3,413 | 11,599 | <issue_start>username_0: The community has been doing a good job closing opinion based questions, but I wanted to see if there was community support for adding a new close reason to make it very clear to the OP how to improve a question when we choose to close them for opinion based and hardware shopping reasons.

2015/04/03 | 1,526 | 5,930 | <issue_start>username_0: Often when I return to a question I find my comment deleted. Yes I know the purpose of the comment field, so no need to lecture me on that.
Most of the time I just think I just forgot (result of getting senile, which is a possibility considering the advanced age), and did not make a comment in... |
2015/04/07 | 348 | 1,305 | <issue_start>username_0: I recently flagged 19 comments as too chatty or obsolete and have had all of them declined.

2015/04/27 | 421 | 1,897 | <issue_start>username_0: Let's say that for instance I have a series of very short questions with an average of 5-10 words each. Do I normally ask a question for every? Or can I ask small questions in one question? Or should I perhaps ask little questions in comments on a question with relevance to the short question I... |
2015/04/28 | 470 | 1,745 | <issue_start>username_0: I found a solution to [a question on this site](https://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/55243/the-headphone-jack-on-my-macbook-pro-just-stopped-working-how-do-i-fix-it) that no one had provided my answer for and I wanted to share it with the world.

2015/05/10 | 762 | 3,110 | <issue_start>username_0: Questions that highlight shortcomings or flaws in Apple's products, especially recently as the usability and performance of Apple's software has declined, are often down-voted or voted closed, suggesting that Ask Different is not the place to ask such questions.
Is there an appropriate place t... |
2015/05/11 | 448 | 1,620 | <issue_start>username_0: I have read about the community user. It is a bot that pulls old questions out, does site chores, owns unregistered users questions, protects when questions attract "me too!" answers.
But the profile page doesn't mention anything about approving and rejecting edits. How does that work? Does a ... |
2015/05/13 | 375 | 1,469 | <issue_start>username_0: If my comment “adds something useful to [a] post”, I’d simply like to know so - I’d like to be notified. I think that such a feature would, in the long run, improve the quality of comments. Thoughts?<issue_comment>username_1: Votes on comments are more similar to favs on Twitter/likes on FB in ... |

2015/06/14 | 690 | 2,860 | <issue_start>username_0: Why is there no filter for off-topic posts? I mean, it would have to be actively maintained (or automatic), but for months leading up to the release of a product, you can expect wave after wave of off-topic posts. It just seems that if you were to prevent anything related to "El Capitan" or "iO... |
2015/06/15 | 385 | 1,571 | <issue_start>username_0: As far as I know, you need a certain number of close votes to close a question. I have seen some high reputation users closing questions for several reasons. I also saw a moderator closing the question instantly, as only 1 name (the moderator's) was listed. If I had high reputation and I voted ... |
