Internet forums are disappearing because now everything is Reddit and Discord. And that's worrying.

Agreed. In general people seem to like centralised platforms. They don't want to sign up on another site for a specific purpose. They stick to what they know unless there's good reason to change (mostly peer/ad/social media pressure I feel like).
In a way Lemmy is similar in that it's a single platform to access all types of content. Given most people don't care about the technical "how", I can see why they like Discord and Reddit.
