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

How do we get them to switch to something like Element?
Most of these communuties using Discord are better served by something that isn't a chatroom. So, so, so confusingly many of them use them as a store of permanent information. Like a website+forum.
Many times the benefit of Discord is the ability to paywall parts of it with Patreon integration. We need more foss and federated options that do this.
Isn't there any solution for that yet?
None of which I know...
