Hi! Like others on this thread, I’m a long time reader who’s finally created an account to try to join the discussion. I’m curious, if I comment on a 15 year old article or something, is anyone likely to see that? I love browsing around the Concepts pages, but are comments there (.e.g.) likely to be seen?
My intuition is that comments on recent trending articles are more likely to get engagement, but can anyone confirm or deny or give suggestions on the best ways/places to engage?
The most recent comments show up in ‘Recent Discussion’ on the main page, regardless of article age. But, of course, though some people may see them, you are still more likely to get engagement if you comment on recent articles. Don’t know about wikitags comments.

I believe that the author will be notified and may see it.
