Where to lurk as VC.... "i will not promote"

Okay. I started on the start-up side and am now scouting for VC. After the immolation of Twitter, ahem X, I was wondering where startup convos are happening (other than this sub). Genuinely interested in what apps or any suggestions on where to find high-quality potential that may want to seek funding at some point. Please don't pitch/promote on this post. (Mod, is it promoting if I'm just a middleman with no personal stake, just trying to help? Pinky promise.)
