The only way to the main page is either via a direct link, by entering the URL, or by changing your preferences. At least this is the state for now - perhaps we'll adjust that later, depending on where users feel the biggest pain points.

We're not necessarily married to the current setup, but just trying to get as many people as possible to the Feed to see if it actually does increase engagement and retention compared to main pages"

Please do send in the feedback via Special:Contact/feedback - I myself also use the wordmark to reach the home page but now I'm not able to :P

A workaround for now is to manipulate the URL - from any link, remove everything until the. E.g. [//community.fandom.com/wiki/ https://community.fandom.com/wiki/] goes to the home page. That's what I have to do now. It's time consuming and really annoying. Every website I've ever gone to, clicking on the header (whether it be a photo or text) with the company name (or wiki name) should take you to the main page, whatever that may be. For Fandom pages, it should take you to the main page for that wiki. Users (especially people just visiting your site, who have nothing to do with editing the wiki), shouldn't have to mess around with the URL for it to take them to the main page, if for some reason they landed on a sub-page from a search engine or an external link.

For my wiki in particular, many people only share a link to a specific sub-page, but a lot of people click the header wordmark to go through to the main page.
