I haven't been on a Team server as a professional developer, but I am on a few Developer Community Discord and WhatsApp groups. Being on such servers has been immensely helpful as a beginner for me since it provided me a straightforward way to communicate with more advanced programmers and teams working on the projects. Personally, an introvert, the casual interactions in off-topic chats have also helped me get more comfortable with people and help develop my networking skills too! It also originally motivated me to start contributing to Open Source as a sense of comfort developed in my mind that there are people who will help me out if I get stuck somewhere.
Btw, any chances for a DEV community discord server? 😋
Please, for the love of all things, DEV don't create a Discord. 😄
A developer community should be open, not stuck using proprietary communication channels like Discord and Slack. Plus, I can't use Discord from the command line!
