I think forums can still work, but they need a clear reason for people to come back.
For me, the strongest things are:
Useful discussions people can find later through Google
Real industry experience instead of generic social media posts
Job/service sections where people can actually connect
Good moderation so the forum does not become spam
A community where new people feel welcome but serious members still get value
Social media is faster, but forums are better for long-term searchable discussions. If the content is useful and indexed well, a forum can still bring traffic for years.
