[Suggestion] Listing more resources under the Help Page

[Jeremy-Svendsen]

Hello!

I've been using Linux Mint for 7~ish months now and it has been a great experience. I've been wanting to help contribute so here is my first attempt!

When I made the switch to Linux, the welcome menu was a great introduction for setting things up. One thing I never used however was the web forums or IRC chat room, they were new to me and I mostly ignored it. Any help that I needed was found either through Reddit or Discord. So my suggestion is that they are listed in the help section.

I did some playing around myself and managed to add this functionality for fun, here is what it looks like.

Now I do understand why this may not be a desired feature, reasons maybe being:

• They are community based and not entirely within the teams control
• Its not just a place for asking questions, but also to socialize with the bonus of offering help.
• Adding on, they aren't great for finding previously asked questions like the forums.

Some reasons for going through with it could be:

• More options for users to find a place they already know & are comfortable with
• Possibly get more involved with the community directly

This is just my insight and I wanted to share with others, i'd be interested to see what others think. Thank you for reading & let me know if there is anything I did wrong or could do better :)
