The discussion button has no Indication if the discussion page exist or not on mobile. The user just has to tap it to find out. on desktop the talk page is in red letters if it doesn't exist and it and blue letters if it does. But not on mobile.

Why do you want to know if content has been posted on a discussion page or not? If you want to discuss something you'd go there anyway? I'm missing a use case.
Comment Actions
This is a report about feature parity, there is no need of special explanations.
The use case is clear: if the discussion page exists, someone there might have comments or questions for you to read; if it doesn't, then you would need to add your own for the talk page visit to be useful.
Comment Actions
Yes, it should be clear to the user if the link contains content. That way he wouldn't have to waste a click just to find out that there is nothing there in the first place.

This talk page button:
<div class="post-content" id="page-secondary-actions"><a href="...Talk:xxx" data-title="Talk:xxx" class="talk mw-ui-button button">Discussion...</a></div>
.mw-ui-button { font-family: inherit; font-size: 1em; display: inline-block; min-width: 4em; max-width: 28.75em; padding: 0.546875em 1em; line-height: 1.286; margin: 0px; border-top-left-radius: 2px; border-top-right-radius: 2px; border-bottom-right-radius: 2px; border-bottom-left-radius: 2px; box-sizing: border-box; -webkit-appearance: none; zoom: 1; vertical-align: middle; background-color: rgb(248, 249, 250); color: rgb(34, 34, 34); border: 1px solid rgb(162, 169, 177); text-align: center; font-weight: bold; cursor: pointer; }
needs to be made into two different versions, blue for exists, red for
doesn't exist, just like on desktop.

While reading this task and it's discussion, found something strange out and filed a task: T206406: Main Page on a wiki doesn't have a Discussion page / Talk page on Mobile View. Wondering if it's intentional.
