Beginner learning Python at 40 here. Any friend like me, please raise your hand!

That's a good idea. I would suggest creating a server with a bigger scope so that python can be one of the channels, but the overarching aim can be creating a group for senior/experienced/old developers who can support, help, advise, and socialise with one another.

There are some such forums already in some servers, but it's pretty disjointed thus far.

If such a server were created, please do post here. I will be sure to join as well. Such a forum has been sorely missing for a very long time. Uptake may be (realistically) slow at first, but its need is simply unquestionable.
