I think setting up a server isn't the real problem. The bigger problem is the idea of using discord for an open source community when there are solutions like IRC or Matrix which are actually open source. Not to mention that discord is going to start showing ads.
Another issue is that the article mentions using forums, which is a bad idea. Using forums the information is limited only to members of the discord server. Good luck finding something on google if it isn't even indexed.
