While I'm a huge fan of Mastodon (I run wandering.shop), I'm a bigger fan of using tools we already have. :) Given that https://discuss.python.org/ already exists, using that in the future seems fairly reasonable to me?
There's also nothing stopping folks from starting a thread there now, of course, but I interpret Ewa's point as "We didn't let the candidates know this was expected of them, so it's not super fair to start this discussion there now. It's still a great idea, and we should do that next time." I agree with that, because otherwise it's an unfair advantage to the candidates who are closely following this thread and know to show up to the forum.
