What is the feasibility of storing the entire forum on some decentralized file system. Ideally it would be bitcoin itself through something like ordinals. But alot of people probably would object to that as a waste of blockspace so what other ways could it be done less expensively.

If you use something like BitTorrent or IPFS protocol, it's feasible although limited by who wants to act as "seeder" or "server". IMO Bitcoin blockchain probably should be used to store BitTorrent or IPFS link.

1) how much disc space does the bitcointalk forum hold in total?
2) how much does it grow per month?

I think @LoyceV and @TryNinja might able to answer these question, since they own copy of this forum.
