Internet forums are disappearing because now everything is Reddit and Discord. And that's worrying.

You don't....you go back to forums. They're searchable. Discord and Facebook and well anything self hosted isnt via search engines
But many people don't want to have everything completely public, even if privacy is a illusion there.
We have to accept that and provide a solution for both.
That's why I specifically wrote "completely public" not "private".
I think most people know that a discord server with a few hundred or thousand members can hardly be considered private. But I can imagine that there are people who don't want to put it directly online for everybody to find on Google. Not that I like that.
