Introduce the complexity filter questions on the toaster

Hello everyone from the Toaster team! We are glad to present you a new service feature, which, as shown by our recent survey , was awaited by many.

Now you can customize the issue of questions in accordance with their complexity. This setting is available in three tapes: "My tape", "All questions", "Questions in the tag."

Then we will tell you in more detail why we did it and how everything works.

Why did we do that


In any large community, sooner or later the conflict between “old men” and “newcomers” is brewing. Some people have long thought that too many simple, in their opinion, questions were asked on the Toaster. But if you leave some difficult questions, how will beginners learn? In addition, many professionals, on the contrary, are interested in teaching beginners and answering their “Noob” questions.

In order for the service to be equally comfortable for both “old men” and “beginners”, we decided to separate the questions by difficulty and give everyone the opportunity to adjust the difficulty individually for themselves. We believe this decision is much more flexible and effective than the introduction of “minuses”, with the help of which the minority can impose its will on the majority.

How it all works


There are three categories of complexity of questions: simple, medium and complex.

Initially, the complexity is asked by the author of the question, but after its publication, each user can vote for the complexity, which, in his opinion, this question corresponds. Those who would not like to see the light, in their opinion, questions in their tape, can reduce the complexity of such a question by voting. And vice versa, if you think that the question is not at all simple, you can vote for assigning a higher complexity to it. Thus, thanks to the participation of the community, each question will receive the complexity that it, according to the majority, corresponds to.


We hope that now everyone will be able to more precisely adjust the Toaster to their own interests in order to develop professionally and help others to do this even better.
