Thank you. Is there any kind of timeline on the changes, such as later this year vs 5 years from now?

LaTeX capabilities in the comment section would be amazing. It can be extremely difficult to help Learners with long division or complicated fractions with the current text-only posts. It would a...

HappyJoshua is correct. Someone asked about it on another community post, and (if I recall correctly) Support Advocate Evan Lewis said that having custom avatars would require too much moderation ...
