At the same time, I feel like nowadays there's less forums or places people can ask help with, although today ChatGPT can be a good help with newbie questions.

I'm sorry, what??

There are more places than ever to find support. The Ubuntu forums, EndeavourOS forums, Manjaro forums, NixOS forums, SUSE forums, etc. Just about every larger distro has it's own forum and they're all very active. Then there are general Linux, Linux "newbie", Linux help communities on the various Lemmy servers and (whether you like it or not) on Reddit also. Then there's Mastodon. General tech forums like Level1Tech, Hacker News, etc.

I dont know about that. There is Lemmy and a ton of Distros or respins I know have forums.

Some have chatrooms which totally suck for finding information.
