I've seen a lot of communities moving from IRC to Discord, which is a fantastic improvement in accessibility, search, etc. For the types of communities I'm thinking of (eg, certain retro gaming niches), forums had essentially been dead for years before Discord rolled around and helped revive a lot of conversations. Maybe it's an awkward fit for technical stuff where you really just want Q&A, but I love it.
