I can see many things are held back due to legacy reasons. I think major forum based boards already support migrating from existing platforms like vBulletin. Discourse, Invision Community, and Flarum to name a few. They are more modern, and will provide the benefits too in so many areas (aside HTTPS).
I know it would require work, but if developer is willing spend a little time in migration then everyone can have a wonderful new experience with much more flexibility to developer later on.
Ignore if it's done case and there is no interest to update (understandable) and run things on legacy for various reasons.
