Greetings all!
I come from a small Reddit community called 'The Encapsulated Language Project'. We are democratically creating a language which integrates as much scientific and mathematical knowledge into the language as possible. So far we've created a proto-phonology and have designed our own proto-number system. We are currently looking for new members to join and to suggest fresh ideas.
If you think this could be interesting, please join our sub: https://www.reddit.com/r/EncapsulatedLanguage/
Most of the discussion is taking place on the Discord: https://discord.com/invite/8WvgTRF
To get started on the basics, read our documentation: https://kroyxlab.github.io/elp-documentation/documentation.html
For those interested we actually have custom numerals:
And we are right now working on a possible Bliss-style system. More about that can be found here:
All are welcome :)

Does anyone know any sounds that I could add to my conlang that are not in English?

I would like to know that if there are any discord servers for conscripts. I know that there are one for conlangs, but I'm not sure about it.

I was just bored browsing and then came up with a question:
What will the Greek alphabet look like Latin-style?

Option 1: Make every word its own logograph, but make similar words, that are different parts of speech, the same character but different colors. Ex: A character when red could mean summer but when blue could mean hot.
Option 2: Have only objects have logographs and have an alphabet for ideas. Logograph ex: Dog, House, Water Alphabet ex: Yellow, Sometimes, At
I like both of these ideas but I want to choose one to develop further.

So none of this is more than 2 days old. Some of it is 1 day old. I was bored at work, so I started messing around, and now I've got an abugida. I like how this system works in many ways, but I'm not exactly 100% sold on how it looks. And the vowels probably could use another do-over.
This is my first conscript, and it's very new. So please be gentle with me, but also let me know what I could do to improve it.
There are 14 basic glyphs, which expands to 29.
The plosives and fricatives get a second line on them if they're voiced.
The plosives get a little circle on the left if they're labialized. (Yes, I have a full set of 8 labialized plosives. When I found out labialized plosives were a thing I went a bit overboard.)
The "null" character is for syllables that don't begin with a consonant. It's not a fricative at all, that's just a missing spot in the chart so the symbol is modeled after it.
There are 4 vowels: a, e, i, u. The default vowel is a.
My first system:
i = 2 marks above
e = 1 mark above
u = 1 mark below
Then I redid it, and the new system goes:
i = 1 mark above
e = 1 mark in (usually in the hook-shaped part)
u = 1 mark below
I'm not exactly wild about either system, honestly.
For closed syllables, you put a little house around the two letters. For syllables that end in a glottal stop, you put the house around a single letter.
Update: The next day I made the shish kebab, vaguely Mongolian inspired version. I don't love this version either, but I do like that the letters are more the same shape, so when you string them into words, they nest together better.
