Hello felt bigger than all of LEM's singles combined, and the albums were talked about in the media pretty similarly.
Views feels bigger though. Longevity and appealing to the entire 13-30 demographic like no other wins

Views in no way feels bigger than 25 lol. The only recent I'd give some credibility to that statement of "feeling bigger" is 1989.
Views has literally sold less than 20% of 25, and while streams may account highly for an album's performance nowadays, I still don't think View's massive streaming makes up for it. The albums also have totally different target demographics who consume music very differently, so it's difficult to compare. But overall, I give the edge to Adele. She took the US and the world by absolute storm to a level almost no one can reach.... this is something I do not think Views has done. It had One Dance (and I guess Hotline Bling is a part of the Views era too), but outside of its smashes, and globally, it just doesn't compare to Adele.
The album has also been regarded as one of his weakest efforts, whereas Adele's seems to be taken more favorably in comparison to the rest of her discography.
