Probably any where you enter "comments" e.g. on an issue.

"discussion" == Issue or Pull Request or any comment on a commit, etc.

In my case the user just keep forking without any other activities, so I don't find any comments or PRs. I have to fork one of his/her public repo, create a new file, push, create a PR and tag the person in the comment.
