Channel member migration plan

1. Last week, we previewed the upcoming channel changes

2. We want to ensure that existing channels have a set of members on Day 1

3. We’re proposing automatically converting active followers → members for channels.

4. We’re optimizing for something straightforward and pragmatic, not perfect.

5. We’re looking for feedback on this proposal.

re, the coming channel changes and day one members:

>for channels /with moderation enabled/ any user who was liked by a mod or mod-bot will be auto-migrated to the "new" channel.
>dan is asking for feedback but this sounds workable to me.

what popular channels are /not/ moderated, if any?

Popular channels will be fine. 
Growing channels will have a hard time. 
A good step forward for the platform anyway.

Farcaster is my first and only social media | I'm mostly JK | Host /venting /burrfrens | mod /impact /byegary

The plan suggests 3 ways of adding members:
1. Current channel followers (mine has 169)
2. Current moderator(s) foloowers (I have 1.9k including bots :) )
3. Looking through show more replies to find potential members. (Will not work for my channel)

Obviously I'm only considering my own situation.

depends on why/ how those channels are growing.

not all growth is good growth. in fast, bad-growth should be /assumed/ pending evidence to the contrary. abundant bots are the background condition/ assumption.
