Title:
  Upgrade tool suggests defunct ubuntuforums.org URL

Status in ubuntu-release-upgrader package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  The text displayed by the upgrade tool includes a URL to
  ubuntuforums.org, which is no longer active. This should be removed to
  avoid confusion for users seeking support.

  The outdated text is as follows:
  "If you have a question, or if you think you may have found a bug but aren't sure, first try to reach out on one of the communication channels. Matrix is the go-to for instant chatting, while Discourse would be more approriate for long discussions in a more asynchronous way. Otherwise you can still join the #ubuntu IRC channel on Libera.Chat, send an email to the Ubuntu Users mailing list, or find some help on the Ubuntu forums:

    https://ubuntu.com/community/communications/matrix
    https://discourse.ubuntu.com/
    https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InternetRelayChat
    https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-users
    https://ubuntuforums.org/"
