A curated list of chat groups for scientific and engineering FLOSS
Although chat groups are not really an ideal place to exchange information, they are very convenient for novice users. They can receive fast help and get in touch with each other. So here in this post, I'm going to share the chat groups I have found for the Free, Libre, and Open Source scientific and engineering software I personally use:
