Merge the welcome and about pages

[AlbertoPdRF]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

The welcome page is quite ugly and empty at the moment, and it's main call to action drives users to the about page. The about page will hopefully be way more visually appealing after #303, and it already has a call to action to drive users to register, so merging both will hopefully improve our user conversion rates!

Describe the solution you'd like

I'd like the welcome and about pages to be merged into one, but also keep serving the About component on the /about route for logged in users to be able to see it.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Leave everything as is.

Additional context

None.

Hi @ch374n, welcome to our repository and thanks for your interest on this issue! :raised_hands:

Here's a more detailed explanation of what this issue is about: right now we have a Welcome component that gets rendered as the landing page for non-signed up/logged in users. We also have an About component that gets rendered whenever anyone visits the /about route. The idea is to render the About component inside the Welcome one -- making the necessary adjustments so we end up having a nice landing page --, but also keep rendering the standalone About component when logged in users visit the /about route.

I hope that's a bit clearer! :slightly_smiling_face: But if you need anything else, don't hesitate to ask! And you can also join our Slack workspace, for which you can find an invite link on the README.

If you want to work on the issue, just let me know and I'll assign it to you! :eyes:
