My advice would be to create your own echo chamber, not the bad ideologically biased one, but the one that helps you put yourself and your work out there while being able to stay updated on the developments within the community. I feel that twitter is a far better platform to learn than quora, reddit, and what not because of its mainstream nature and authenticity where you can interact with real experts without falling into the linkedin trap(networking for the sake of it and spamming people). The only thing is you will have to excercise at least a little bit of caution and restraint on the side of meandering around mindlessly.
