One thing I'm not totally sure about is the "third-party resources" link. It links to the Delightful Forgejo list.
I think it should be linked but I'm not sure the "Support" section is really the right place – but none of the other categories seemed more appropriate.
Any thoughts?

Hmm, what about "Use Forgejo"? It would kinda fit the docs and third-party apps, as well as the professional support. Instead of all third-party things, it could also link to "Public instances" only.

I'm not sure if Matrix fits there, though.

I did a quick test with someone who was around, asking them to find a way to donate to Forgejo, and someone to contact for professional support. I tested with the live version of Forgejo, so a page where both links were not actually present.

It confirmed my suspicion: People read the Forgejo website in chronological order, starting with the navbar. The only "slight" exception is the footer.

I think that the donation link could actually fit the navbar, but next to "Get involved" is probably fine,too.

We could also keep the footer as-is, and if we are unhappy with the complete "third-party" list, we could refer to something specific, e.g. the tutorials section, or public instances.

I created another issue about improving the "Get involved" section at #471

It is a longer-running task, so I'd recommend we make this a low-effort PR and assume that some things could be improved later.

I wanted to link to the full Delightful list as it's meant to be a useful resource for Forgejo users, but it isn't linked to from anywhere at the moment. I just don't know what the best place is to put the link.

Maybe we could rename that section "Resources" instead of "Support"?

I added it to the "Get Involved" section in #472, but we could also add it to the navbar separately.

I think I'd keep it in the footer too, but if anyone thinks that's too "pushy" I could remove it.
