@mister_cole Is there still a tech support area where someone like me, who invested in the Para Chains in 2021 and does not quite get how the polkadot wallets work, can get technical assistance as a community service? If not, I am happy to pay for a moderator’s time. I recall there used to be something like that. I have access to my main wallet, and I have a list of the parachains that my money is invested in. But I don’t know quite how to navigate. Ideally, I would like to set up a zoom call where I can use the share screen button with the guidance of an administrator. Forgive me for posting this in a public forum, but I do not see a way to use DMs here. Also, If anyone reading this is a scammer, don’t waste your time impersonating an admin, I am not as stupid as I sound. ---

Hi all! 👋 I am a newcomer on the forum, but in the Polkadot ecosystem I am already focusing rather confidently.
