How to meet and work with likeminded people on the Internet?

Question

I&rsquo;m from Pakistan and I currently work as a Backend Engineer remotely. But given my background in Electrical Engineering, I keep tinkering with electronics and robotics stuff whenever I have time to spare. Currently I&rsquo;m working with Embedded Rust using Embassy.In my country, there&rsquo;s almost no one who is working on these deep-tech technologies unfortunately and I am having trouble relocating due to really bad reputation of my passport which consistently ranks at the bottom of the list in terms of travel freedom.I want to know where and how I can meet people online who are doing electronics + embedded + robotics stuff with whom I can collaborate and learn from.

Plenty of things you can do. Here's a few off the cuff:
- Follow bloggers in your field, contact them.
- Post your thoughts on blogs/forums. Say you're open to conversations.
- Start your own online space (forum, Slack, etc) for that field.
