Aside from the "not searchable from the outside" thing, another HUGE point against it is no branching comment threads. It's all classic style quoting.
Plus, at least from the perspective of actual personal discord usage (as opposed to "official community" usage), the fact forums are not available unless if a discord server has a permanent open invite link on their server list and more than a certain amount of people gives the whole forum thing a bad taste. We just want to organize some stuff internally without opening up to people we don't know where they came from. But you can't even Boost to get access to the feature. We're active enough thay we're always getting access to new features months early compared to other servers, just not the stuff that's meant for schools and company "owned" servers I guess.
