Experimenting with a new onboarding feed that is algorithmic like TikTok. No initial follows. But that means you need to be posting engaging content.

What about recommending channels to follow? Channels feel completely missing from the onboarding flow but maybe that's by design

Current Warpcast UX hasn’t got me going to channels. How do you use channel feeds ?

That's my point - the Warpcast UX does not push people to channels at all which seems to result in worse engagement across channels. I use certain channel feeds for certain topics. Nearly all of my casts are cast into whatever channel I think is the best fit

Same, I am usually not happy with the main feed but stick to scrolling down instead of visiting other channels. Initially I liked to explore a lot of channels. I'm not sure if going to channels was too much effort or if there was too much spam at some point that my behavior changed. Originally I went a lot to the degen channel (> too spammy), then visited frequently the /sports-bets channel for the EURO 24 (> event ended), now stuck with main feed despite better content in /founders /degentokenbase /higher /data & prob many others I haven't found yet.

Early-on I checked WC on mobile, didn't find much interesting except NFTs. Then, content & channels got better. I enjoyed chat around improvements for Warpcast & difference of Farcaster vs Twitter bubble. I got active with the degen launch & came back daily. I looked into everything Farcaster: tooling, stats, channels..Degen, Base, Farcaster & their influencers dominated at that time & I built my early circle. > Big channels became spammy & I used desktop to find niche, specific channels, posted frequently in Degen to grow Degen but also to get likes & follows. I mostly used mobile & briefly looked into degen channels but also visited & launched other channels (outsiders joined but not active since). With frame launches, I didn't connect Base wallet & used desktop more to mint.. In the past 2 months, I briefly scroll main feed (got better) on desktop & mobile, try frames (few tx), read & post in degentokenbase, try degen apps, share content to twitter. overall, never spent much time consuming content.
