LemmyBB - A forum software that supports ActivityPub federation. The web framework used is Actix, the frontend is in JavaScript. It actually looks like those old school PHP forums.
Orbit - Another forum software that supports ActivityPub. Frontend is in Typescript, backend has Redis + PostgreSQL.
Discuz - A forum software built using MySQL and Actix.
Morum - A forum software that leverages the Matrix Protocol. Despite being a new repo I decided to share it because it seems like an interesting concept.
Hikari - A simple Apache 2.0 licensed forum software in Rust. The repo also looks new, that'd explain the lack of details.
As you can see that almost all of these are very new projects, it could have been a bit bigger but I didn't include Reddit alternatives, that is why you don't see the main Lemmy repo and Freedit not being linked here.
Obviously forums aren't as popular as they used to be, so this topic might not be of interest to many. For folks that want to run a forum, they'd most certainly go with Discourse (Ruby), Flarum (PHP), Xenforo (PHP), NodeBB (Javascript), Nimforum (Nim) and maybe Casnode (Go)
