What about Discourse? They have an open source, self-hostable version:
https://github.com/discourse/discourse
I've not tried but this has been on my radar for years: a forum than runs on Node - NodeBB

For a PHP based forum, glance at Flarum - I have not tried but it's been on my radar for years.

Search engine indexing is available in Zulip today via Zulip's public archive tool (https://github.com/zulip/zulip-archive). Many larger OSS projects using Zulip, like Rust, Julia, and Lean Prover, use it.
We expect to have a native feature allowing a configurable set of streams to be browsed using a real Zulip web app UI without creating an account, available in beta in the next few weeks; we're actively integrating the implementation via https://github.com/zulip/zulip/pull/18532.
We plan to look at optional search indexing in that native implementation once the logged-out access feature is complete complete.

We (I work for Forem) have an opensource selfhost installer [0] so you can have total control over your data and community too.

Maybe then it'd make sense if I mentioned Talkyard (which I'm developing) https://www.talkyard.io (open source) — it has automatic upgrades. There's not yet any plugin system, instead currently "everything" is built-in, and there are (unfortunately) fewer features.
