my main problem is issue cannot be searched on search engine
Chat and forum are different things and serve different purposes. Even matrix doesn't solve the search problem. Use a forum for this.
The biggest problem with traditional forums is the fact that participation requires yet another account. This is the most significant thing that discord has going for it, nearly everybody already has a discord account. Federated forums mostly solve this issue tho
You can literally connect most active forum engines to eg.: OpenID, XMPP, email or any/most kinds of online identifiers. Worst case scenario you can literally enable "sign in with Google".
Discourse is great. It needs flawless activity pub integrstion.
