What venue is best for keeping up with and learning about DigiKam?

[Henrik Hemrin]

Hello,

Adding my way to learn and interact as per today:

First of all, reading the documentation available via website 
digiKam.org plus the digiKam recipes book.

For user interaction, both to learn from others and my own queries, I 
use this e-mail list. The e-mail list is very useful to me.

I follow digiKam at Mastodon and LinkedIn, that is primarily following 
the accounts as there is very limited interaction.

I have not (yet) been using Reddit at all, but it appears to be 
interesting to consider.

Regards
Henrik Hemrin
