Discord describes Forum channels as “a place designed for focused discussions, not just free-range chatting” and server members will be able to browse these channels for what's relevant or make a new one for a fresh topic.

Server owners and mods can opt to create a Forum channel, a text channel or a voice channel, and the new kind of channel will live in the same place but be distinguishable with a chat bubble icon. Clicking the icon shows a list of specific conversation threads posted under a given topic, which should go a long way towards making Discord more organized and more relevant to people who can’t always hang out in real time.

Forum channels will roll out immediately across mobile and desktop to most servers with community features enabled. Discord notes that all users won’t be able to use the feature right away but it will continue to expand access until Forums are universally available.
