Also, enable additional security such as 2fa in the email used in this forum. And use different email and passwords with accounts on forums or other social media.
And then I suggest not to use the Secret Question in Account Related Settings.

The reason for not suggesting the use of secret questions may be because, this feature will automatically lock the account when trying to recover passwords using the Secret Question Method. Because I have experienced this, when I forget my password and want to change it, then I use a secret question that I have previously set, the result is my account is locked.

2FA email might be very helpful for securing email, I have also implemented it.
