How about an FLL Pybricks Community?

[FLL-Team-24277]

Every year I see more and more FLL teams using Pybricks (Unearthed will be my fourth season with pybricks). I think there could be a benefit to having a platform for us to communicate and socialize. I'm not necessarily saying it should be here, but I'd like to see how much interest there is and if anyone has any ideas for where and how to implement it. Thoughts?

Thanks for sharing this. Good to know you're seeing more teams use it.

I suppose the discussion forums here could work quite well for this. Would it be helpful if we added tags for FLL questions? Or if there is high demand, we could open a second discussions page here dedicated to FLL (although it would mean people would then need to search multiple places.)

I'm not a big fan of platforms like Discord or Facebook groups. They appear more accessible at first, but questions and answers basically just get lost in time. Here on GitHub, the answers remain searchable and even non-members can learn from the answers shared by teams.

I would like a tag for FLL questions. Precisely because it's easy to find for future users who need the information. I've already found and learned a lot this way in the existing environment.

I am definitely OK with a tag for FLL. I think that will be a great way to get the community started.

I don't use FB at all (even though there are great FLL communities there), and I rarely use discord. So keeping it here would be handy.
