Thanks for remaking it!
Not a problem! I am quite new to foraging myself - but what better way to learn than to host and contribute :D
Welcome to the party. I definitely recommend checking this site:

Nice one! I thought about making a pinned post/list of apps and resources for this community, this is a good addition!
I use inaturalist. It generally works pretty well. If it doesn't get the right species, it will at least get the right genus or family. I will say that ot isn't really intended to just be used to identify things, you are supposed to tag things. If you identify something but don't post it, your number of tagged things goes down. I'm not sure if there's a penalty for going negative or something like that, but it's good to keep in kind that you should make sure you are contributing
I use PlantNet, I know some people use inaturalist, I don't know anything about that though. A person on my other post recommended shroomify. I hope that all helps.
I second this notion
