New experiment on Warpcast Narrowcasts - Limit your casts to channel followers - Cast in niche / esoteric channels without “annoying” your audience - You can toggle between everyone and channel followers only - The composer will remember if you previously narrowcasted in a channel

FAQ 1. What happens when I narrowcast? > Normally, when you cast in a channel it goes out to all of your followers—regardless of whether they follow the channel. So if you’re a /diet-coke enthusiast, all of your followers will see your silly casts about caffeine in their home feeds, even if they prefer /coffee or Pepsi. But with narrowcasts, you can limit your casts to only followers of /diet-coke. Note: this is a Warpcast-only behavior for now. Other clients are free adopt or disregard this. 2. Are narrowcasts part of the protocol? > No. They’re an experiment. 3. How long will you run the experiment? > For a couple weeks. If it has low usage, we will likely remove. If usage looks good, we’ll work on incorporating into the protocol. 4. I want to see all casts from everyone I follow even if they narrowcast but I don’t want to follow every channel! > Try using another client like @supercast or @herocast

I like seeing those silly casts, it's how I've found out about a bunch of niche communities that I now enjoy, and learned more about my friends here on Farcaster I'm all for more granular control over casts but I feel like for the specific case of noise reduction letting people toggle off non-followed channels may be more helpful than the caster just limiting their post
