I looked at the discussions for both wikis but I wouldn't really say that they're "active". Dr. Stone's discussions page has a post every couple of days to a month with low to no comments, while Kimetsu has more frequent posts but again suffers from lack of comments for the most part Be that as it may, the point being explained here is that Discussions absolutely can capture some traffic even if Reddit captures some or most of it, so if some users might come here, why not accommodate them? a lot of it is fanart and polls anyway That can be improved with stricter moderation, which we would be happy to provide to you if that's not what you'd want to see in your Discussions. Both of these series are manga which I feel is not a good comparison with Re:Zero which is a light novel The anime release is almost always the primary driver of this kind of growth, & for the anime releases of all these Wikis including Re:Zero, we expect very similar growth irrespective of the source material. Why doesn't Fandom just make the app compatible with comments instead? Fandom is working to do just that, in the UCP, which all Wikis will inevitably be moved to. UCP Wikis have comments that run on Discussions technology (which is why they might be possible to integrate into the app, as old comments use incompatible technology), but that means Discussions eventually will be coming in some form anyway if comments are left on. You can read more here, & as that blog lays out, Forum & Message Wall will also be converted to Discussions at some point. I don't see how discussions "allows for far more broad & general topics of discussion" than regular comments. Do you mean fanart and polls? I mean in the general skein of a conversation; say I start a conversation about Satella & her relationship to Subaru, which then naturally branches out into Subaru's interactions with Crusch Karsten & ultimately flows to a conversation about the battle with Hakugei & all about Crusch's contributions to that fight. The conversation has clearly gone beyond Satella or Subaru, & would not be appropriate for a comment section on their pages, but is a completely valid & enjoyable conversation for a couple folks to have. Discussions better facilitates that, not just via its layout but by necessarily not having a single-article topic.
