Running a channel community is a lot of mental and logistical gymnastics that don't scale. I don't know how other founders do it (on top of their main responsibilities) without burning out in the medium/long term

I think most of the manual stuff you have to do at the start is unavoidable

It’s way easier to create a channel than to bootstrap the community: curating the right members to seed the group,  creating norms (setting the culture), encouraging participation within the norms.

I would categorize the work in 2 buckets
- creative: culture stuff, curation, creating norms, content
- logistical: literally keeping track of who your members are. Sharing updates on some kind of schedule. Some overlap with content creator tools, but much more geared towards getting people to engage with each other

What aspects of community channels do you think currently "don't scale"? Curious if community incentives can solve some of these..

fwiw /the-arena is my new favorite channel

Why did you create /the-arena?

There are 2 dominant seasons in crypto today, speculating and building. They are complementary and play critical roles. 

I believe we’re now in building season. For how long, I don't know.

This got me thinking about the kinds of behaviors I’d want to inspire and recognize here during building season. 

I landed on shipping because if I don’t ship, how could I learn? Shipping sets into motion the powerful flywheel of experimentation and learning. 

Here are my intentions when I started /the-arena last week:
1. To grow builder energy in crypto by recognizing active building (shipping software) and celebrating our wins together
2. To create an organic cozy corner and tinker with channels

Do we keep this experiment going?

Good experiment and I guess your personal challenge! Curious to know why did you start to run the channel?

Proxy did a thing of allowing community members run it as well
