Join the R-Community on Google Groups and the next London R Users Group Social Event

R-Community on Google Groups

I am in the process of creating a welcoming, collaborative space where anyone can ask and answer R questions without judgment and share R packages or their work using R. Think of it as the helpful, supportive sides of StackOverflow or Reddit, minus the negativity and elitism.

The idea of using Google Groups is to avoid making people creating accounts on different platforms, as these days the R community is spreaded between LinkedIn, X, Bluesky, Mastodon, and others I have not explored. Google Groups works with any email regardless if it is hosted by Google and you can interact with it from groups.google.com in the browser or from your email client.

No matter your programming style, all R preferences are welcome here. Whether you are working with base R, the Tidyverse, data.table, or exploring niche packages in the wider R ecosystem, your questions and insights are valuable. The idea is are all here to learn from one another.

Code of Conduct: Strictly friendly and welcoming environment. Zero-tolerance policy for bullying or hate.

London R Users Group: Upcoming Social

How does meeting up during the second week of October sound?

I am planning an informal social event at a local Wetherspoons. It will be a completely relaxed evening to grab a pint (or a soft drink!), catch up in person, and chat about all things R. Whether you are a seasoned package developer or just starting your data journey, I would love to have you there.

If you are interested in coming along, please let me know:

• Email me directly
