Is there a need for yet another channel for communication about Agda?
People are already asking questions on the Agda mailing list, on the
GitHub bug tracker, on the IRC channel, on Gitter, on Reddit, and on
Stack Overflow. What is the purpose of adding yet another channel (which
additionally seems to require you to log in just to see what others have
written)?

I think the zulip chats might be slightly friendlier for newcomers than any of the sources you mentioned just because they're more casual. For instance, I asked some very naive questions on the lean zulip chat and wasn't made to feel like a complete idiot.

Since zulip seems to be increasingly popular in other communities with an interest in formalized mathematics, this might also serve as a "recruiting opportunity" to get some new folks to start playing around with agda.
