mambaforge is discontinued and it is integrated into miniforge now (check message below from miniforge Github repository):

Click to see message Mambaforge (Discouraged as of September 2023) With the [release](https://github.com/conda-forge/miniforge/releases/tag/23.3.1-0) of Miniforge3-23.3.1-0, that incorporated the changes in https://github.com/conda-forge/miniforge/pull/277, the packages and configuration of Mambaforge and Miniforge3 are now identical. The only difference between the two is the name of the installer and, subsequently, the default installation directory.

Given its wide usage, there are no plans to deprecate Mambaforge. If at some point we decide to deprecate Mambaforge, it will be appropriately announced and communicated with sufficient time in advance.

As of September 2023, the new usage of Mambaforge is thus discouraged. Bug reports specific to Mambaforge will be closed as won't fix.

The link should still be this one: https://github.com/conda-forge/miniforge#miniforge3

But we should point to download and install miniforge instead of mambaforge. The rest can remain the same, mamba should work from miniforge.
