I don't think it's possible to get "mainstream communities" away from Discord to any open alternative. Not after they got a taste of maximal convenience.
For forums to make a comeback, they'd have to reach the same level of convenience. People would like to have a single account which allows them to browse forums and use them without having to register over and over again. People who want to run a community shouldn't be required to have technical knowledge about how to host a forum software. And of course, things generally shouldn't be janky.
Those are the minimal requirements which are only viable if a single huge provider runs the show.

@nprofile…4nnf I use Astro currently, which has really good ergonomics and needs very little explicit configuration for what I use it for. I also love that it embraces TypeScript typings so I get IntelliSense everywhere.
11ty has no typings at all, and 11ty.ts is janky. I need to configure a lot more, and I also found out that the template format that looked the most promising to me (WebC) doesn't play well with Markdown or MDX, which I use heavily.

I really can't overstate how much I hate seeing how homogenous the idea of "online community" has become. So many of them just being slightly different Discord servers that look fucking identical. "But Volpeon, they have different banners and emojis" OH WOW. A DIFFERENT BANNER. Clearly things aren't all that different from those old online communities I grew up with which had their own wacky website and a forum using a custom theme etc.
Like yeah, sure, everything is now easier to navigate because it's consistent, but in that process it became samey and boring.

2026-01-07 20:59:51 GMT

What people should do isn't to take communities living exclusively on Discord and move them exclusively to another platform. Chatting should be just one part of a community. Add a forum. Add a website where you can share whatever makes sense for your community. Add a Minecraft server. Have fun events. That's how things used to be, and it had way more personality and was more resilient.

I got drive-by Linux evangelism in response to the Windows post earlier and it highlights once again why I dislike microblogging the way it is. If they knew me, they'd know I already use Linux. I understand why people won't necessarily gain this knowledge here, though, because fuck no, I'm not going to review everyone's post history which is like 95% irrelevant noise before replying. But I also don't want to explain my values and such over and over again. Such an annoying situation all around.
