How are people feeling about the channels change?

Honest feedback requested!

Love the update but what about new users? They can only cast in their home feed which no one sees without followers and when they try to reply or interact, their replies often end up in Show More since they’re not part of any channels.

On top of that many channels require holding a specific NFT, token or esubscription just to join. That’s a big ask for someone who’s already paid a subscription fee just to use Warpcast and is trying to get started.

This update is great for existing users—we’ve found our place and built connections. But what about newcomers? Aren’t we trying to bring more people in and help them find a community too?

Interesting this comment Dan, new users will still be able to cast on Home and respond wherever they want, but they don't land in "show more replies," right?

How will replies work from non-members with the new channel model?

1. Only members can create a new cast in a channel

2. Anyone can reply to a cast in a channel

3. On Warpcast, member replies will appear "above the fold" and non-members will be below the fold in "Show more replies"

4. However, if the original cast author likes or replies a cast from a non-member—or a channel mod likes or replies—the cast will appear above the fold.

5. This balances the membership model for channels with the ability for discovering new people, highlighting their reply and potentially inviting them to the channel.

6. Since you can have up to 10 moderators in a channel, including helpful bots, we expect that people will build bots that help surface interesting replies for non-members (and possibly even auto-invite them). Developers will get creative.

7. Ultimately, your channel, your rules.

yeah if you are not a member of that channel , your reply will land in show more
