If you want to interact with the community, this mailing list is a great starting point. However, if you'd rather have more interactivity, may I suggest:
Twitter (a lot of people watch the #PostgreSQL hashtag, just ask your question and you should have answers)
Events (IRL meeting with community is so great, you'l find a list of local user groups and community events all around the world here: https://www.postgresql.org/community/
About free scripts and tool, you will find so many of them that your main problem will be to choose the one you want to choose from :-D
Have a nice day,
Lætitia

Hi!
First post here for me. I wrote the question below on StackOverflow but it wasnt allowed and I was directed to these mailinglists.
From Stack: ------ Im currently an MSSQL DBA and have been for soon 2 decades. However, Im very curious about PostgreSQL and want to learn more. I have installed it etc but coming from MSSQL where the community is awesome I fail to find a good community for PG where I can ask these questions. Im used to free scriptpackages on MSSQL like Ola Hallengrens backup solution or Adam Machanics sp_whoisactive/Brent Ozar sp_blitz.
Im guessing (and hoping) that any such tools/scripts are available for PG but I fail to find it. Can anyone point me to either a nice tool like the ones mentioned above or a PG community that can help me out, or even better, to both? ------
Big thanks in advance!
Kind regards, Brian
