Default Other Knowledge/Skills

Perhaps this has come up before, sorry if it has. And, it's clearly off-topic for this forum. But, this is where I interact most so I thought it made sense to solicit opinions here.

We are all, to various degrees, connected through our love of Porsches. Many of us know a lot about Porsches and cars in general. But, I'm sure we also have other skills and knowledge.

I was thinking it might be useful/fun for there be a forum where non-car-related help is sought and offered. No, I'm not suggesting Rennlist become Reddit . However, if I wanted help with building a gaming PC (just as an example...I actually don't want a gaming PC lol), I might value the opinions of a fellow 911 owner with whom I had positive interactions with on Porsche topics. I noticed there is already a non-car forum for aviation. I'm thinking of something similar, but more general, and more oriented around helping each other.

For example, I know a great deal about home automation, Mac computers, electronics, cooking, and espresso brewing techniques and equipment. Yes, one can find info about all these things on various other forums. For this reason, maybe there's no much value in having a Rennlist forum. But, as I said, an opinion from some of you on a topic I need help with might carry more weight than some random guy on Reddit. And I would love the opportunity to help a fellow rennlister if I can.

I included a poll. Feel free to vote no if you think it's dumb and/or unnecessary . If a forum never results from this, always feel free to message me for help on the topics I listed above .

The space already exists here on Rennlist, but it's lightly attended. It's called "Off Topic"
