Farcaster

why Farcaster channels ain’t hitting it:

seems like more of a scale issue than one of a channel ui/ux issue

if farcaster had 1m DAUs channel experience could be totally different

not saying channels are perfect today either

Warpcast

this was me

the interface is designed around the main feed. yet the incentives and all other strategies are formed around channels. 

i think the concept of channels as a social network primitive is powerful. but they've been an after thought in the Warpcast interface.

i think those are separate issues. this one is a scale issue, you're right. 

reference for other folks, i got into the interface issue here:

i think those are separate issues. this one is a scale issue, you're right.

Yes they're separate issues, but to say channels are broken seems misdirected.

Channels aren't working because there aren't enough users casting niche, fresh content daily

So is the solution to change channels, or to get more users? 

Agreed channels aren't living up to the vision in practice, but curious to hear what you think the solution is here. Channel redesign? Remove channels? Focus on growth?
