Speaking at least for myself, I think being able to just play with code in browser significantly decreases my activation energy to engage with a new language.
Yes please! Gather more awesome things at haskell.org (ensuring their maintainers can still maintain them easily). Dramatically increases discoverability and trust.
I think the repl on the front page is still better because it has an interactive tutorial. So I think it would be better to move the playground to a separate page like haskell.org/playground or play.haskell.org. Maybe the short interactive tutorial can link to the playground at the end.
hypothetic https://play.haskell.org would be awesome. How much it would take to migrate the current playground? It seems that PR hasn’t move for a while, maybe we should open a broader disccusion on it.
