Is there a platform where regular people can suggest FOSS ideas to developers? I have a great idea and want to contribute to the community. Any recommendations?

Honestly the best way would be to start coding by yourself. While trying to find solutions you might find the right people too.
Almost every dev has its own ideas and ideals. There is no lack of ideas but everytime a big lack of time and men power. Software developers have more too much on the plate then too less.
So sharing ideas is nice but contributing is gold.
I would call it the FOSS Dev Paradox.
Why not set up a simple flarum instance? I got one running. If OP can drive traffic to it and actually bring developers to it, I’m more than willing to grant OP mod status or even a hestiacp account
That’s so nice of you.
Makes sense. I am a writer/filmmaker myself and people always come to me with ideas. I usually reject because it doesn’t resonate with me.
But I also understand them. Mastering a craft takes so much time and common people also want their voice/idea heard.
I never thought of programming as a way to express oneself. That’s nice perspective.
