Communities move to Discord because it is a catchment: you can set up a server for free on a moment's notice, which gives you a place to hold a decent proportion of your community for continuity. The mod tools are also sufficient for basic use. You're right that it's not a replacement for a forum - terrible for archival and search purposes.
