Community name that is currently listed: The Odin Project

Describe the issue:
The Odin Project is not a general support server for programming, it is a support forum specifically user learners following the curriculum at https://theodinproject.com

Expected:
Moving The Odin Project listing from "Stackoverflow Alternatives" to something more appropriate.

@mhxion Hello! I'm one of the Core members at The Odin Project. We regularly get folks needing general programming support and they aren't able to get that in our server. Can we be removed from this list?

Let me know if you need anything from us. Thanks!

Hi. Thanks for reaching out. Honestly, I didn't think this list would have that kind of impact! I will place the server in a different more appropriate category. If you insist, I can also just remove it from the list entirely. Let me know. Sorry for the unintended trouble!

@mhxion I'm open to a different categorization. What did you have in mind?

We honestly get a lot of traffic. 😞 And I am sure there are other places on the internet beyond this resource that are directing folks there. But any change would be welcome! 🙏

I suggest to put the server under the "Web development" section (right under the main section, avoiding any sub-section). Does that work for you? @bycdiaz

@mhxion That feels like a nicer spot! Can we add a statement about the server only being for getting support for tasks related to our curriculum?
