I was going to post this in /warpcast but the new channels system means I can't. So here it is: the new channels system is quite possibly one of the worst designed, exclusionary systems I have ever seen not only on any social platform, but on any platform in all of existence. I am saying this without hyperbole. I've had the pleasure of getting to work on & with a lot of social platforms through my time in enterprise dev, before going full degen in the crypto world. I've seen a lot of bad systems, but honestly, this one is just.. really out there. Exclusionary-by-default is not how to grow a young social network. And don't come at me with the "just use a different client" shtick. It's natural to get attached to a client/platform you've used for months, and feel dismay when there's a pattern of changes being made which detract from the whole reason you fell in love with it. I can't even imagine the thought process behind this one. It is absolutely baffling. Feels like a ghost town since it was implemented.

It's really hard to reason with.. They talk alot about spam control seems to be the guiding light here

Yeah, I've seen this before, and tbh even fell to doing it myself at one stage. You get so wound up in the game of whack-a-mole against spammers (and scammers, or just plain abusive users) that you start developing all these insane systems to try and stop them. Eventually these systems just wind up alienating your core userbase.

Instead of creating a compelling app, they fight the user where anyone can be suspected as spammer. It's like you can rationalize it only if you have a greater plan of presenting a clean of spam side of this place, in some specific channels... A lot of theories came to be to explain such a weird move
