a indie game i support refuses to use a forum, only discord. i hate searching thru threads in discord when a forum would be easier.
i wish people wouldn't shun the idea of a forum just because it's a "old idea." good on the jellyfin folks for doing this.
i like Steve Huffsglue better.
you would need to search this "!whereisthisplace@lemmy.world" in the search box. this will bring that community into lemmy.ml.
EDIT: adding my server too
currently using a old Dell PowerEdge r610 as my homelab.
now for the things i host!
i would move my lemmy instance to my own selfhosted setup, however i just don't want to go through with setting up NGINX proxy manager. also, my internet is a bit slower at home than what i'm getting with this hetzner VPS.
exactly. it's not hard to install SMF or PHPBB on a small web server, however actually maintaining/managing a forum is a bit harder.
it's easier to round up Discord moderators, but good luck finding anyone with forum moderation experience.
