Hi,
1. When you join it gives you a long key and says you should record it. But it isn't copyable so there is no way to do that! This seems true at least in Chromium in Linux.
2. It would be really helpful if https://topanswers.xyz/codegolf had a way to list all the currently defined tags.
3. I couldn't see a way to sort the questions by how popular they are or any other criteria.
4. If you click on a tag it would be great if it listed only questions with that tag.

These are good suggestions and we are thinking of ways of implementing them all, thanks you.

Originally, the sign-up process was simpler, and the pop-up dialogs were added later for compliance, and to encourage people to save their login key.
More recently, system notifications were added, and we started generating a notification with link to the profile page and prompt to save the login key on sign-up.
We think that is enough on it's own — the benefits of more nagging (if there even are any benefits) are outweighed by the downside of tainting one our unique features: low friction sign-up. We know from feedback that is a welcome change from most other websites (though it is disconcerting from some who are used to having to hand over PII everywhere).

You can now visit https://topanswers.xyz/tags?community=codegolf (or click on any tag) to get a rudimentary list.

Not quite what you asked for; clicking on a tag takes you to the list of site tags (with the clicked tag highlighted and scrolled into view). There you can find a link that shows all the questions with the tag.
I'll update this post when we make progress with the other suggestion.
