    There are key boards made for Indian languages and it is bit tricky to learn the layout. Instead I use http://lekhini.org/ o type in Telugu. I just have to type Telugu words in English and it converts it to Telugu script.

    But I use Telugu key board on my phone ( android as well as iOS )

    I would have written టిల్దస్ instead of Tildes. It is common practice to use English script intertwined with Indian languages.

    Telugu and other Indian languages (As far as I know) use these symbols !@#$%^&*()_+~`-=,./<>?;;"'[]{}| as is. There is no special noun for them.

    I prefer neatly written code which can be maintainable. Features are owned by the product owner and as a programmer, I do my job by keeping my code clean and readable. I always try to make sure that a new programmer can understand my code. If I copy code from somewhere, I try to put the link to that post or page in comments and explain why I did that.

    Coming back to the product, I do love the end product. I believe that good code created good products.

    I think moderation should be automated. If a comment or post is racist or offensive, users should be able to mark it as offensive and explain why it is offensive. With certain number of such marks, system should notify the OP and then after a threshold, either delete or war other users before opening the post or comment.
    User offensive post score should also be tracked as well as offensive reports scores.

    I just tried to give an example. If a post does not belong to the group, same method can be applied.

    Yes and no. I like it when the layout stays same and colors are customizable. As a developer I would like to see the site have uniform look and feel and enough customization for each group. May be a banner with background etc.

    I think UI treatment can wait and there may be more priority items to be ironed out. Is it possible to publish TODOs?

    Only thing which is not free and not available to buy is commitment.
