Every now and then I get a forum as a search result and they're just so clunky. Replies are spaced out too much, no chains, everyone has a long winded signature phrase. I'm glad it went to this kind of format.

Especially since Reddit passes out bans like candy, it's the biggest forum on the internet and I can't use it because of a site wide ban that I didn't deserve.

I think a big stumbling block is authentication. I think Web 3 could really revive indie forums if the was integrated properly.

It was give people a single sign on for thousands of forums.
