Lobsters

Lobste.rs tried differentiating on a number of factors. Many of those factors are spelled out in the about page. That drove a passionate group of people to use it... Even then... I don't think it was enough.

Hugo

As for existing forum software, all of them are clunky and will require a technical person to host, manage, and maintain. It is like trying to ask someone to use hugo rather than weebly/medium/substack for their personal blog. Or setup their own file-servers rather than using dropbox. Again, even I would rather just use dropbox.
