It's a good question - having a group of people who can support you and offer feedback is great. The downside is the quality of the feedback - if everyone is at the same stage, say, total beginner, how can you be guaranteed that the feedback is useful, impartial, from a trusted source with authority and actionable?
I do have a channel on Telegram called "Independent Filmmakers, Writers, Artists Network" which I'm planning it out more for sharing some useful tips and resources available for now. Mostly I have a plan to make it something like a platform for producers and indie filmmakers association and so on. Haven't seen the future of that channel, but yeah like Eoin O'Sullivan said I'm not covering the feeback in their yet or anything which falls under service. But more like promoting your videos and resource at this moment.
I would still consider myself a beginner. I have two completed feature length screenplays and a produced short film screenplay. But at least we'll be starting. Rather than waiting on experts.
Interesting idea. Whatsapp can be good, it can also be an never-ending notification ding. But I like where you're going and would be interested. In the meantime, if you want me to read/critique a script, send me a message with the logline, genre, page length and what type of feedback you're looking for. Cheers.

Hi Damilola,

Miss/Mrs Noel Thompson. I can't send you a message unless you accept my request. I'll be waiting on that
I tried to send a message, but I'm not sure it went through to you?
It certainly didn't. You have to accept my request first as a connection
