Answer 1

@Martin Taylor
the AMA OP is asking about is the abbreviation of ask-me-anything. SoloLearn conducted a few AMAs of some reputed members of the community a few years back where people could ask anything in the comments of the AMA section. They can be found on the SoloLearn app.

K.S.S. Karunarathne (Active Challenger) as I said, in an AMA, anyone can ask anything and the person whose AMA it is, will answer them. As for 'will there be another AMA in the near future', no one knows. It's in the hands of SoloLearn.

as Martin Taylor said, they use a browser to access SoloLearn. They can't access things available only on the app.

@Martin Taylor
you're right. Abbreviations should not be used without context or when there can be many meanings of them. Also, I'm already aware that you use the web version of SoloLearn. But if I may, I had a question that I've been wanting to ask. On the SoloLearn app, you can follow a Q&A thread. When you post an answer to a thread, you automatically follow that thread. And when you follow a thread, you get an in-app notification whenever someone else posts in that thread. This makes it much easier to keep up with threads. But there is no such feature on the web version. So how do you keep up with the threads? Do you have to constantly revisit the threads you answered? If yes, what if you answer a thread and the OP has some doubt which they ask after a very long time (maybe 2 weeks)? Isn't it very time consuming to constantly revisit threads?

@Martin Taylor
yeah I'm aware that those things are not available on the browser version as I used to regularly visit the website till like 2 months ago. On the app, I hardly even need to use the "My Answers" section.

Directs messages are not that big of an issue for me as I hardly ever use them. Comments on codes are useful, but most of the times they are "awesome", "great code", "good job" and so on.

But I can only imagine how time consuming it must be to go and check each thread you posted in recently. I know it's not as time consuming, but it sure is enough to trigger my lazy self who would rather stop answering. I feel like SoloLearn should really work on improving their website rather than bringing UI updates to it (and the app) because the UI is already good enough in my opinion.
