I have been getting my Thunderbird support questions and answers from
(I think) mozilla-support-thunderbird@lists.mozilla.org/
I understand that, sadly, this link will soon be shut down. But I am >confused about all the comments about possible alternate future help sites.
Can someone please explain to me in plain language what is planned and
how I can subscribe.
I am not sure I understand what will becoming in terms of
support such as this has been for Thunderbird.

There's two TB ones too:
https://groups.io/g/thunderbird
(which maybe doesn't allow attachments to posts)
and
https://groups.io/g/thunderbirdemail (which does allow them)
I've just joined both; time will tell what the quality of discussion is
like at each of them.
For anyone who is confused, ALL the groups.io groups, although
best subscribed to via their website, operate perfectly well as
mail lists, and don't require you to login and use them as forums
(though you can if you want).

SO they can be used as newsgroups in Thunderbird? Great! Please tell me
how to set them up for that.

I am not a programmer but I also am not a novice with computer
software. I am a retired university professor and research scientist
who has developed several software programs for the molecular
identification of viruses and the molecular epidemiology of tracking
these viruses as they spread around the world. But, I have done this
with computer scientist colleagues who used my scientific data but who actually wrote all the codes for my software programs.
As I said, I am not sure I understand what will becoming in terms of
support such as this has been for Thunderbird.
Thus, I repeat! *Can someone please explain to me in plain language what
is planned and how I can subscribe!*
