In short: just do a fucking PHPBB forum, it’s better than this shit.

Or a wiki or IRC or Matrix or Lemmy or Mastodon, etc. There's so many FOSS platforms for this kind of thing to choose from. How someone looks at all those options and then chooses Discord is beyond me.

Mattermost is open source and has a ton of integrations with other open source tools like Gitlab and CircleCI.

i feel everyone has just forgotten about gitter? literally its entire schtick is being the communications platform for github and gitlab, and now it's even been acquired by the matrix team!

Like surely that's the obvious place to go?
