There are some things that I get Khan Academy doesn't want to allow, but would greatly affect my experience, so I just want to see if any of them could be changed.

1) I've recently had a few collaborations, and since I'm active in the community, I bet a lot of people want to see my projects. But this goes against me sometimes. I can't have my projects private without having to have a child account, which first, I don't have any other social stuff like Gmail or Facebook accounts, and second, I want to be able to do a collaboration, so I can have private programs for people I choose. Also, making a collaboration site would work better than having to keep spin-off of a program to edit code. If two people could edit at once, it would improve my experience, but kind of lag the Khan Academy server, I guess.

2) Is it possible instead of having to reload the page each time you want to see if someone posted a new message, could we have an auto-updating thread/comment section? Of course, you could just go to another tab and come back, but it would be more convenient.

3) Is it possible to implement a system so that if two programs look similar, it notifies a Guardian so that they can review it and check if it's plagiarism or not? I've recently seen a few cases of plagiarism, and it bothers me how so many people just want votes so bad.

4) Just so you know, if you make a title that's too long, then then the overflow will go through, and it looks kind of bad.

I just found out that if someone posts something in, say, the Tips & Thanks tab, if you go to the Questions or Help Requests tabs, you can see it without having to reload everything. The bad thing is that it messes up your notifications.

Yeah. That's because when you switch tabs and back, it'll give you the reloading effect.

Oh, whoops. I think you said that before I did. I confused discussion tabs with browser tabs. Sorry.

1. I’m not sure exactly what you’re asking, but it’s unlikely KA will add any private program feature soon, simply because that would be a tool for publicity, not learning.

2. I believe there is a KA extension somewhere which allows that. Unfortunately, it is not official. It was made by some pretty skilled KA users though so you may want to ask around if anyone can point you in the right direction. Again, KA wouldn’t add such a feature because it would be used more for chatting than for learning in most scenarios.

3. It is possible, but there are millions of programs out there. It takes up to half a second for a KA API GET request with reasonable internet and a decent computer so it would end up taking a very long time to save a program. We’re talking days or weeks, assuming you keep a stable internet connection the entire time. They could possibly implement this just checking the first few pages of the votes and hot list but it would still take a little while to save a program. In the end, most plagiarists get caught without this feature.

4. Yep. Simple solution to this one: don’t have long titles :P

1. Huh. I don't get how it's for publicity, but more for a collab.

2. Oh, okay.

3. Oh, okay.

4. Yeah.

Well, another question. Do you know why sometimes the Processing JavaScript sometimes doesn't work here, or isn't too functional?
