Don't Use Discord as a Forum
I'm not familiar with the codebase, but from my understanding it saves messages in a database [1], then periodically send out a formatted email to people who subscribed to the thread/group [2]
Anyone can post on the forum, you just have to provide an email address (you don't have to register, but you can enforce it)

[META] Like Rationalists Leaving A . . .
What I would really, really like in any forum software is an NNTP bridge. Ideally bidirectional, but at least readable via NNTP. So far, the only one I've seen is https://forum.dlang.org/ with actual code at https://github.com/CyberShadow/DFeed .

Introducing the new Godot Forum
Nice! I kinda wish they went with https://flarum.org/ instead of discourse, though. I think Flarum is the better forum software and it is also open source.

Simple WYSIWYG html editor? Open source or cheap.
I've been playing around with a new open source forum called Flarum for my blog. It's a forum by nature but it has a blog extension and with some work you can get it to be just a blog that looks pretty nice. I just recently finished getting mine moved over (I rarely blog but here it is) - I'm not too sold on it yet either though so there's that.
