I love this site and the community here. However, I haven't used Hackady.io (this site) as much as I'd like, due to some gnarly and very persistent bugs. This is a page dedicated to documenting them, in hopes of fixes and also as a repository for when I add new collaborators (although, also a bug with that!).
So far the biggest bugs are:
- adding collaborators to a project (auto drop-down list issues)
- adding video embeds
- adding images (includes a bunch of extra spacing and html code for unknown reason)
So there appears to be a nasty video-embed bug, when using the built-in video link share button.
With this bug, the video image embeds itself in random parts of the post, behind other images even - and can move text around too. I'ts pretty nutty.

One workaround I have found is to simply the embed URL and adjust the viewing box to a smaller size. In this case, 720 x 405 seems to work. It also helps to use the HTML markup version of your post (icon <> located in upper right)
work-around for embedded videos.
A note of caution though, don't add video embeds until the very end in your post. It will save you some cleanup work and headaches.
One of the most challenging current bugs is adding collaborators.
This is supposed to be done by typing "@" followed by a persons username in this box:
However, the drop down menu often only shows one or two names to select. and there is no search function or anything like that. There also seems to be different behaviors for it across browsers.
