Warpcast

Context:

After this, it took 19 steps (clicks, taps, swipes, etc) to buy warps (with CB Wallet + Commerce being over half of them)

I think this is a major hurdle to creating cozy corners, because you need to be a power user to get through that flow ^

Channel creation could be better, but difficulty of creating a channel is not the reason we don’t have a lot of interesting channels.

It’s a content / incentive problem.

True - there was a land grab mentality initially, but that's tapered off

That said, number of channels is a misleading metric. We need "qChannels" and barrier to entry should be as low as possible because creator talent can show up whenever

Too many bad channels

(source, I have a bunch of crappy channels)

is there a way to petition for a channel? there's a channel that'd I'd love to run that is currently inactive (only 1 cast ever) but already exists

Build another client ✅
Build another channel ❌

Doesn't seem very decentralised.
