Two ideas. One might be to engage with them on Stack overflow or here in Dev.to

The second is attending Meetups, conferences and hackatons. I visit those regularly and I often find myself among great developers.

Those are good ideas.

The folks with a mutual interest are probably on StackOverflow. It's too bad that SO doesn't encourage social interactions. The topic has been discussed a few time on Meta, and they're very explicit about it. They might even be right that it will alter who they are, but I wish they could find a way to add some such element.

SO made a specific portal, probably it is used by those who hate Linkedin stackoverflow.com/jobs

Last thing we (the devs) want are lurking recruiters at meetups and stack overflow, do not give them more ideas :)) they already started to approach people on Facebook ...
