IMHO, the Racket techie community should naturally have a lot of overlap
with the Hacker News community, so it sounds odd if we are not already
friends.
If you want to prioritize outreach for smart, independent-thinking
techies who might be inspired to try commercial use of Racket, then,
near the top of the priority list for meaningful engagement, I would put
places like HN and some non-totally-astroturfed corners of Reddit.
These are people already seeking out high-quality concentrations of
social hardcore nerds, and isn't that one side of Racket? (Just because
a particular huge 'social media' dotcom still has a lot of users,
doesn't mean you'll find concentrations of smart techies still using it
more than they have to.)
Ideally, 100% genuine immersion, and personally wanting to participate
with other communities on their own merits, not a corporate Social Media
Community Manager or Buzz Marketer type of role. But if not enough
people have time for that, then more an ambassador role can be done well.
(I'm speaking here of engaging techies who are likely to be ready to use
Racket for real-world development. I also very much approve of Racket
welcoming everyone who comes to it, as well as mass education that
elevates everyone, but I don't know much about those.)
