Scrollbar bug

Create a new post and quickly move the mouse over the available icons in the wysiwyg editor. If you do it fast enough, multiple popups are open at the same time and one is forced into the next line, which not just looks weird, it can also shift the entire page because of a scrollbar appearing and then disappearing again. I tested this on a 1920x1080 monitor in fullscreen. If the scrollbar exists ahead of time, no noticible shift happens and the miss-placed popup is way harder to notice.

Visists counter

The counter goes up even if the page is just refreshed. This is not acceptable as it can be used to artificially blow posts up and annoy staff / visitors. There needs to be some kind of check to prevent this. This is not easy as guests should also count but there needs some kind of check in place. Maybe not IP but a few semi-unique combined pieces of information for guests and account ids for logged in users. Doesn't need a 100% waterproof solution but at least it needs to be thought about.

Multiple different OAuth provider

Probably belongs into answerdev/plugins but i'll note it here anyway.
Having one OAuth provider is not enough. I should be able to use as many as i want to and not be locked to one to increase the potential userbase.

Answering my own question inside the content, not a new answer.

If i have a simple question that i want to write an answer for, i am forced to put something inside the the "content" textbox. Instead of forcing me to write something super obvious or just repeating the question from the title, i should be allowed to put the answer in directly. One real example:

Title: "What are the reasons for a ban?"
Content: "Is there a list of things that i can avoid to get banned?"
Self-Answer: "Yes, [...]"

The person was forced to basically write the same question inside the content because the title was so self-explanatory that there was nothing of value to add. It doesn't look good, adds nothing of value and could be much more compact and readable if the person was just allowed to put the answer into that content block.

I get that not every question is that obvious and sometimes more context is needed but in hyper specialized communities, self-answered questions usually are that simple and should be accounted for.
