I was solving old Advent of Code the other day, and someone suggested to me another seasonal coding challenge website: https://everybody.codes/home

As there are many people here who are actively solving AoC, I'm sure you'd be interested in that too. However, I'm not sure which community we should be using to discuss these? I'm seeing three options:

use this community for everybody.codes specifically (as it has largely the same format as AoC, and probably a lot of AoC solvers would be interested in that too),
create a dedicated community for everybody.codes (I can do that using this community as a blueprint),
use !challenges (the format doesn't really match, but in spirit it kinda makes sense).

WDYT?

Keep Advent Of Code and Everybody.codes together => More activity in this community, more discoverability for either competitions. Only drawback => polluted feed. Which can be fixed by the tags.

I like the idea of using this community for other similar seasonal challenges. By its nature AoC isn't going to be very active outside of December so this would be a nice way to have the community be active.
