If revising a course is going to reset the mastery percentage, it would be very helpful to alert everyone using the course that such a change is coming. I would encourage Khan Academy to start ale...

I run into this a lot -- I'll be answering a Question that looks like it's in Algebra 1, so I use algebra techniques to explain, but the person asking was in 7th grade math or 6th grade math, and t...

I agree. I did a search on "dark", and found dozens of posts begging for dark mode, going back at least 7 years. You can see my comment here:https://support.khanacademy.org/hc/en-us/community/po...

- Is "Incredible Answer" awarded automatically based on votes, independent of actual quality?
I don't care about the badges. I care that a 6th grader looking at the Top Voted Questions for that video might think that someone at Khan Academy made the decision to give that Answer those award...

Thank you, that sounds very helpful. Is that the change that caused the weird fonts a few hours ago? It would be great if Khan Academy had a place we could look to see if there were site issues - ...
