Nobody wants to do that self hosting for a Q&A forum for a side project.

Discord is free and is omega easy to setup. Low friction, low cost, that's the real competition



Discord is slow, weird to setup and a walled garden with zero control about anything.

Nobody in their right mind would want to use that for a project they care about, over using a piece of free software they have full control of.

At least in my POV


Sounds like your POV doesn't contain many people!


Discord is not free, just “free”.


I'd rather self-host a forum.
