Think of This As: What Would You Suggest To People Who Want to Grow And Be Part of Open Source Community?

What should I/other people know about for events to go to, and what groups to join to be part of online to help make the most positive impacts? What organizations should I get in contact with to assist their missions to grow what is possible?

(Whatever you suggest can help other people too who are just now and onward joining the community. Think of any way that can really grow it)

I am learning a lot by doing for various things for my own projects and contributions to open source but what would I have to do to fully be part of the community In-Person and Online to grow it in various good ways?

Near-term I want to help in spare time with growing Mobile, UI/UX, Marketing, Ways to Show Which Projects Need Funding, Bring New Devs To Open Source, Ways to Help Encourage Collaboration on Projects That Need Devs/Other Fields, Animation, and Social Media parts of open source community.

Also want to grow long-term the worldwide movement to make open source transportation of anything and everything a reality: HSR, trains, trams, cars, bike-cars, bikes, walking bikes, submarines, motorcycles, VTOLs, airships. etc

Help me/other people help you all! Please and thanks!

For real, that's actually the opposite of helpful. Documentation should be based on experience from use combined with discussions with the devs (providing they have the time).
