Discourse, a modern web forum software, does have decent searchability and
archives baked in. Discord, a web chat service, does not.

Are you sure you're not somehow mixing the two up? I've lately seen people
oppose Discourse as they think it is Discord, which is an understandable
mixup in the midst of a flurry of new rapidly changing technologies and
fora after a few decades of stability in how to communicate to each other
over the internet (email, irc, usenet).
