strong agree. the design surface for channel focussed apps is under explored. we have useful building legos already with neynar, automod and openrank -- channel rankings and channel feeds are in a good spot. apps can further customize, curate and moderate channel users and feeds.

How can you identify reputable users within a community or channel?
- create channel specific power badges/user segmentation. incentivize good curation permissionlessly.

How to show better content/feeds? Which content should appear first?
- use channel feeds based on your own curated power users and their content (automod+openrank+neynar)

DM if you're thinking about this.

In current Farcaster, freedom of speech exists, but the distribution of information is not, with most traffic focused on early users.

Other blockchain ecosystems like Solana, Blast, definitely want their own social networks to control content distribution.

How to use channels to meet this need is a crucial growth point for Farcaster.

Recaster can be a client level tool to integrate with those dev legos and run some experiments.

Building /stokefire a mobile strategy game onchain. Run and own poolfish.xyz a calculator for LP providers. Built Potion solo and sold for $300k.

But I don't know how to handle the current following system for a new community..

Yeah. I agree. I think channels can still be a big growth lever for farcaster.

I mean the channel / channel owner should have more power, which can help the content distribution in channel.

What are your thoughts on content distribution that is not based purely on engagement (as that heavy favors bigger accounts)?

Add customization options to channels. Right now there is nothing to differentiate /success from /degen besides a title and channel description and some hidden rules. 

- Can we get banners ala Reddit or Facebook pages? It doesn’t have to be huge or gawdy - something classy and clean but that lets us add some customization to our channels.

- We could really use an explore type tab for channels and communities where people are having fun and spending a lot of time. Similar to the explore tab for composer actions/etc.

- Not sure if this is technically feasible but sub-channels would be dope. For example; success has a subgroup for education  -  it would be awesome if we could segment educational content away from other content. 

- Bring back something that shows top casters. I know you said it could be gamed but it’s still a cool feature. Gives people a reason to spend time in a channel. 

I have also asked in the success GC so will come back with more feedback.

With the current system, it seems that engagement is concentrated on initial users with many followers
 And accounts with many followers tend not to react to new users very often, making it difficult to increase new users.
 I think we need a way to solve this problem

Hi, success fam

please, Who can help me? 🙏

Although it has been around 90 hours since the email was promised, I haven't received it yet. 

I also sent an inquiry to the support team (email).  I've done everything I can. But this problem is not solved, and it's just wasting time.  

Does anyone know how to contact the warpcast team directly? 

Hi, my friend @haole 
How are you?

You are friends with "dwr" can you convey the problem I am experiencing instead? 😭

@sahil writes about permissionlessly currating a channel when channel creation is premissoned(only being created on Warpcast), isn't that a bit out of touch?
