I got a sneak peak at the upcoming changes to channels this morning and I want to share a few key points: - The “narrowcast” model discussed on the developer call is on hold. During internal tests, it severely reduced the amount of content on home feeds. - Channels will only have 1 feed with all casts from members. The feed will be reverse chronological—meaning new casts show up at the top. - Channels will be able to add up to 10 moderators. Moderators can invite members and hide slop content. - Anyone can read channel content, but only members can create casts or leave comments. - Automod will still work.

good stuff, personally happy the narrowcasting piece is out for now assuming all current channel followers will auto become members? or do we have to collect a list via airstack or neynar and invite? also wonder if ppl will be able to request to become members vs channel owners having to proactively invite them

only members able to reply seems unhelpful and very limiting. only members casting, makes sense, but anybody should be able to reply. how do you find out who would become a good member? This might be another knock on new accounts.

I think this new plan might have come up because AutoMOD just couldn't handle the load anymore and had to throw in the towel.🫠 When it comes to channels, AutoMOD is without a doubt the real MVP.

Good morning Maretus 👋 I'm curious about how these changes will affect existing members. For instance, if I’m already part of a like the meme channel, will I need to be reinvited to cast memes? Doesn't sound like fun at all What plans do they have for current members in this new setup?

So to be in the main feed , does it need to be liked by the moderators? Or just they hide the uncommon casts ?

I wonder how people would join product channels and give feedback. I can't imagine being invited to /warpcast for example.

Thanks for the info man, the chronological order of the channel feed is good for visibility, hopefully people scroll though the channels instead of just their feed, I’m guilty of scrolling for a few minutes then moving on so I’d miss out on peoples casts from too long ago

From a certain point of view this is good because spammers who write follow 4 follow or spam things that have nothing to do with the channel will disappear... I had to see on the vegetarian channel moxie or steak. The problem will be certain channels will not accept so many people anymore because it will be a tight group they want to keep it that way. Another problem is if the person who created the channel no longer uses farcaster and then people will no longer be able to post anything

Can a channel owner remove someone from their channel?

I think just one page will be enough because there are many subscribers. But I think it was a good attempt.

How are channel members determined? Will I become a member if I follow a channel as I do now?

Thanks for sharing those insights on the upcoming changes to channels! It sounds like the focus will be on maintaining a steady flow of content with moderation controls while allowing more people to engage with what’s being posted. It’ll be interesting to see how the community responds to these updates, especially with the removal of narrowcasting.
