Upcoming channel changes

We're *previewing* some upcoming changes so people 1) can understand and 2) provide feedback.

These changes are not launching yet. It will be a couple weeks. There will also be a bunch of communication to channel owners. 

After reading the entire doc, feel free to reply to with feedback or send me a DC. I've tried to answer a lot of common questions in the FAQ.

spent some time thinking about this today, i really like the move. upstream of it all, it' is a forcing function for better quality posting. at the cost of increasing friction to post, it significantly increases the quality of the network for all. all subgroups of the network become invite-only, great!

Here's the concept for an open source frame that would do this.

Make it configurable for developers to start. And then easy enough for someone comfortable with Claude or Replit.

Then eventually make a full fledged no code tool.

Yep, and I'm confident people will come up with clever frames, e.g. are you nounish?

yep - already thinking "holders of nfts can invite 10x/mo", "invitees can invite 1x/mo", "active members who received 100 likes this mo can invite". offloading the 'quality caster' problem to those closest to the problem is pretty clever.

Yep. I’m more than OK with that. Plus, since there will be new and weird ways to join as a members (not just invites), it shouldn’t be all that hard to get in. Deserving pll are always easy to invite anyways.

better for less spam into rounds, however someone new to the space may not want to get involved / participate in as many rounds sense channels will have a gate to get in?
