PSA Clearing up a few misconceptions 1. Casting in your home feed gives you the same distribution as casting in a channel. 2. Everyone can read and reply to casts in channels 3. Most people will appear above the fold with a reply. 4. We changed the way channels work to shift them from hashtags to communities. 5. If you’re annoyed by the changes, just cast in your home feed. You’re not missing out on distribution or discovery casting in a channel.

Sorry I need a rephrase for 1) : Does that mean people that do not follow me can see in their feed casts from my home feed ?

People who don't follow you won't see your casts unless the algo boosts you. We don't boost from channels. We boost accounts / individual casts based on engagement. So there's no specific advantage to casting in a channel if you're focused on maximizing distribution.

I think that's the big one I got hung up on. Just natural reasoning tells me: - If I cast in my home feed, only my followers will see - If I cast in a channel my followers + followers of a channel will see it The reasoning is channel > home because I will have new people see my stuff and possible gain a follower

This is a very good clarification that maybe bears some repeating and increased prominence. I doubt I was alone in intuitively (i.e., wrongly) thinking that casts into a channel were visible to *all* channel followers — even those who weren’t following the account that made the in-channel cast.

Thanks that's clear ! I had the misconception that people were seeing in their home feed casts from the channel they were following.

If you are new, and have no followers and therefore no engagement, how can you get boosted or grow a following?
