I was going to post this in /warpcast but the new channels system means I can't. So here it is: the new channels system is quite possibly one of the worst designed, exclusionary systems I have ever seen not only on any social platform, but on any platform in all of existence. I am saying this without hyperbole. I've had the pleasure of getting to work on & with a lot of social platforms through my time in enterprise dev, before going full degen in the crypto world. I've seen a lot of bad systems, but honestly, this one is just.. really out there. Exclusionary-by-default is not how to grow a young social network. And don't come at me with the "just use a different client" shtick. It's natural to get attached to a client/platform you've used for months, and feel dismay when there's a pattern of changes being made which detract from the whole reason you fell in love with it. I can't even imagine the thought process behind this one. It is absolutely baffling. Feels like a ghost town since it was implemented.

I could honestly rationalize every other decision that I personally didn't agree with. "Sort by new"; yeah fair, lot of spam in there. Bad for new or inexperienced users to see it, they could fall for scams. Power Badge; again, fair, it was causing a bit of a clique system, and a causing midfluencer empowerment. Personally I still think both systems had merit - I liked sorting by new. Had to sift through a lot of garbage, but a lot of real conversations happened in the new/recent section. Power Badge, personally again I found it amazing for filtering spammers out at a glance, especially when sorting by new. Barrier for entry could've been changed imo. But this new channels system - it's like wanting to get rid of a few spiders and burning your entire house down to achieve that.
