“Channels are just hashtags that we pay $25 for”

this was me

the interface is designed around the main feed. yet the incentives and all other strategies are formed around channels. 

i think the concept of channels as a social network primitive is powerful. but they've been an after thought in the Warpcast interface.

most people won't click through to channel pages

yeah i know. i'm saying that might have to do with how the interface is designed rather than being inherent and fixed.

possibly, talking to people at reddit, seems like time spent has moved way more to feeds (like every other app)

we have some ideas, just not top priority right now

what channels do you think have the best content? 

it seems that focusing on select channels becoming hubs of good content could end up making the feed better along with FC overall. maybe it’s a more focused content strategy that could start to attract better content creators.
