Agreed, but I think this can be solved by allowing for more granular control of channel access. Token gate channels Invite only channels Minimum activity channels Minimum word count posts Post cooldown times I can think of a few more, but having a space for longform ideas from a quality audience would go a long way

I think most of these are channel controls, which certain hosts may or may not want. Warpcast the client will eventually do a lot of the lifting here to identify spam, low effort posters/accounts, and what content types to prioritize, etc. See the active user badge.

I’d be wary of top down changes as it’ll likely lead to the same problems Twitter has where content always skews towards the algorithm meta If channel owners had a suite of tools they could use to shape how conversations happen, then the protocol would have a ton of experiments running towards quality engagement
