User support

See below for information about IRC and Reddit.
Development discussion
======================
Mailing lists are planned for the future. For now, see notes
on [the Git page](git.md) for information about how to assist with development.
Instructions are also on that page for sending patches (via pull requests).
IRC chatroom
============
IRC is the main way to contact the Libreboot project. `#libreboot` on Libera
IRC.
Webchat:
<https://web.libera.chat/#libreboot>
Libera is one of the largest IRC networks, used for Free Software projects.
Find more about them here: <https://libera.chat/>
If you wish to connect using your preferred client (such as weechat or irssi),
the connection info is as follows:
* Server: `irc.libera.chat`
* Channel: `#libreboot`
* Port (TLS): `6697`
* Port (non-TLS): `6667`
We recommend that you use port `6697` with TLS encryption enabled.
It is recommend that you use SASL for authentication. These pages on the Libera
