Will it not be great if we can insert photos in Q&A Discussions ???

Question

I think if we can insert (upload) images in Q&A Discussions, we will be able to explain our questions and answers more easily. What do you think ??? Please write down your views.

Answer 1

Why do u think so Code ???

Answer 2

But Ipang SoloLearn already added the a section in the feed where we can post images even gifs. There is also heavy network traffic in the feed section. But still I don't face any problem. So why not in Q&A D ???

Answer 3

In theory it is possible to include images in QA.

albeit in an indirect way

Answer 4

Rohan Karan images can be uploaded to image hosting services and the link attached with the question/answer, I think image upload for SoloLearn will add more to bandwidth usage and might slow things down for people who are not using high speed internet connection.

Sometimes posting a question/answer may fail due to heavy network traffic even without images. This probably is SoloLearn's consideration, I guess : )

Answer 5

Rohan Karan yes that's right, but I think there are still a lot more incoming Q&A threads than there are feed posts, the number is no comparison.

I personally disagree with the use of images apart from the mentioned network traffic factor, one day, if not care enough taken, copyright issue may also arise (unintentional use of copyrighted images) and possible use/abuse of violent, religious, racism, sexism, politics, vulgar content, and personal attacks, call me paranoid, but I know this is a possibility : )

Of course the true consideration taken into account as to why images isn't used in Q&A lies in SoloLearn's hand, so I guess your best bet would be to ask them directly via e-mail, or the feedback feature (in app only) that way you may get a direct, and official answer.

I don't know if anyone is experiencing the same, but I do get more delay lately in refreshing the view, though I'm not certain, whether it has anything to do with images in feed posts, and yes I am on slow connection ; )
