Really interesting idea. I wonder if stronger personalization or topic-based navigation could help reduce the “where do I start?” feeling for new users.

Thanks! And great point. I've been kicking this around a bit. I was thinking that I probably didn't have enough post volume to justify that yet, but I think you could make a case for it on the Ideas tab.

What questions do you think would help determine preference? I'm thinking Software/Hardware and Skills would be the low hanging fruit.

Yeah, Skills feels like the obvious first step. I could also see tags around intent/goals helping — like people wanting to brainstorm vs people actively looking to build something.
