Funny in nearly all the subs I was in I only ever saw the wiki's when on desktop and based on how many "trigger" bots subs had to answer common questions no one read the wiki's anyway.
People didn't even read the sidebar, let alone the wiki, or even the pinned posts.
Mostly I mean the wikis for really informational subreddits like /r/bodyweightfitness or /r/personalfinance. Those would usually be the best place to get information on whatever topic that wasn't mostly sponsored propaganda. And it had uses that the threads didn't fill because the wikis would take a comprehensive view of the subject matter whereas threads would be about one or another detail.
Who knows. Maybe I was the only one who felt like they got benefit from the wikis. Ha!
As a former member of personal finance I never used the wikis.
