I've been missing niche forums more and more recently and this event makes me realise how much more we need them.
I've actually had to make a Facebook account now to find things.
The past few years we've had a lot of host your own blog options pop up but forum software seems a bit stuck for the non tech person to go and set one up.

The cost to run a small server is less than $2/month. I have no affiliation w/ pikapods, just a satisfied customer. 1. https://www.pikapods.com/apps https://www.pikapods.com/apps
