The more I look at the "latest activity" page - that is probably a few minor tweaks away from resembling a social media feel to it.
Perhaps we can explore that a bit more. What if we tweaked that and set it as our homepage? It might spark some activity since users will see more content related items upon their first visit. Normally, people see the forum list and it resembles a directory. They don't realize there's a whole party going on inside each of those nodes. Well, not on my site haha, but maybe yours!
I also like the featured threads items, but they give the user the feel of a blog/news site.
I think the way to get them OFF social media and back to us, is giving them that familiar social media feel at first, then letting them learn the site from there.
