Heya,

Can I suggest adding an interpreter embed. The amount of times we have to explain VSCode selecting interpreter / the right terminal python version activated is relatively high. All the threads "I pip installed it but the module is still not found" can be started with a link to this embed, it will explain the basics on how to set it up and pip install in the right environment. There are always a few cases where this won't be enough, but in that case we have to debug and find out more information from OP in any case.

Thanks!

While I agree that it is a common issue, I think adding a tag for it might not be helpful because 1) the solution can vary a lot based on circumstance, and 2) many details would have to be cut for it to fit in a tag.

You could try guiding them to an external resource which goes into more detail since length is less of an issue (such as this one that I wrote a while back), but you should keep in mind that it won't cover every possible case either.

There is also the !dashmpip tag which explains using python -m pip ..., but I'm usually a bit hesitant to use it because of its wording. Maybe we could rewrite it to be more specific to this issue?

(PS, tag suggestions belong in python-discord/meta)
