I believe maybe @amr008 might be able to help me but any others, feel free to pitch in
I have very basics Python skills that I'm looking to improve. Do you know any sources on decentralized platforms for that?
Also, if I want to mess about developing on the blockchain should I look to learn a particular language or Python can still be used for that?

I am not really sure what you mean by this . You mean something like coursera but on blockchain ?
I usually go to udemy or coursera to improve my skills in python .
There isn't any restriction . You can build it using python itself if you are a beginner to programming language itself but if you really want to take it to next level ( you must have basic programming knowledge , like say OOPS concepts ) then I suggest you to go with "Solidity" which is solely created for writing smart contracts itself . Ethereum uses it , they only built it .
But again I am repeating , if you have very basic programming language then python is the best because you will get a lot of resources to learn it .

Awesome bro! That's exactly what I wanted to know.
It's just a fun hobby for now, but who knows heheh maybe in the future I end up doing some cool stuff

Sure :)
I always go to Udemy to learn new stuff . The courses are reasonable and I have got quality content so far .

No I don't think there is anything specific but every project has different languages. I do think most projects have some way to connect via a python API.
I think the best way to learn is to make simple programs and slowly keep working your way on different types. I think the best way to learn programming is to actually do it. You learn more hands on as you debug and solve your problems. Google tends to help whenever you run into issues.

Yea, that's the approach I take
I was just wondering if we had a decentralized version of stack overflow or something like that. Just to contribute more with the movement

It depends on what you are trying to do with blockchain. Are you trying to develop on top of it, or directly on it, or develop the blockchain itself? For developing applications on top of it, check out javascript or python. For developing on it, you'll most likely want Solidity which is the smart contract language for ETH. And finally for developing blockchains, you probably want C++ or Go. No matter what you know though you'll be useful somewhere.
Thanks for the input man! I didn't even know about all those ways to interact with the blockchain as I'm still very much a beginner, but I'll look into it!
