A beginner friendly guild could be your solution, many of them have both active in-game chats as well as active Discords. You could ask on the Fleet in General chat for a friendly guild for a beginner, and I'm sure someone will reach out to you
As an added bonus you get more EXP being in a guild, as well as other rewards and the social aspect!
Good luck in your search! May the force be with you Padawan, always!
