The most successful part of farcaster has been channels. Then they got dropped. Why? No good answer.

my observations only:

- messy UX with so many being created, even at $25 to rent them

- none of the moderation experiments ever felt sustainable esp big channels that invite spam

- niche channels don't grow significantly by definition

- no clear business oppty's around what had looked  initially promising

I got people to want to join because of them

Working on Farcaster and Warpcast. Longer thoughts at https://dwr.email

They still exist. They don’t drive growth or retention for most people.m, so lower priority.

Dev has done nothing with them and they have been dropped from the priority list. According to the protocol, they don’t serve a purpose.

I'm wondering what you're expecting them to focus on regarding channels. Doesn't seem like they got dropped, just enhancing them got deprioritized. I don't see it holding anyone back from making good use of channels.
