You keep telling us to have an 'open mind' about it, yet that will not change the fact that Discussions is never going to have Wikitext, has an interface that's unpleasant to work with on PC if you want to write texts longer than ten words, and has a god ugly design in mobile. Those are pretty much the most important dysfunctions of Discussions, and also the things Wikia is not planning on doing anything about. Discussions has a "god-ugly" design on mobile? Its a custom, visually attractive design on mobile devices with an interface that eclipses Mercury. You have betrayed either a percieved lack of design understanding or a singularly unsubstantiated position based on near-zero interaction with Discussions. 'Grats.

I understand that Staff rarely listen to suggestions, but do remember that this is the next big feature for Wikia Fandom, and there is a chance that Staff may actually listen to some suggestions to appeal to their audiences. This isn't a bad point. I do find that many do conflate listening (the act of addressing feedback and giving it consideration) with acting (implementing these concerns as perforce suggestions or feedback). I've had instances where something may have fell through, but they were clearly because of the circumstance of the ticket. It was certainly a modus operandi to encourage or institute product usage before feedback implementation on Fandom's side. But between the change to the framework and the development process, I still have reason to expect something better from the end product.
