User blog comment:Brandon Rhea/Why Fandom Evolves: A Look Ahead in 2017/@comment-1824169-20170111185209

While I'm glad to hear you plan on improving Fandom going forward, I am extremely skeptical of your ability to do so. While some of the changes made to the wikia format are appreciated, many are useless or straight-up broken. It honestly seems like your time could be better spent fixing the many glaring issues with your current features than constantly trying to introduce new ones.

In addition, most of the new features introduced seem very poorly thought out, to say the least. Discussions is unpleasant and inconvenient compared to the existing Forums, the new portable infoboxes are a step down from normal infoboxes in just about every way, and for as much as you talk about how important mobile traffic is, Fandom's mobile site is absolutely atrocious. I honestly find it more convenient to just use the desktop site on my phone.

I agree that smart changes are important to a company's evolution, but so far the majority of changes have been anything but smart in my opinion. I look forward to any good changes you may introduce, but I am very skeptical about what the future holds.
