still feeling weird about how channels work on farcaster. a few things that make it frustrating: · memberships lock exploration: instead of encouraging me to explore new channels, the membership system made me stick to the ones i'm already in. · managing pinned frames is annoying: i need to keep the frame pinned in /groupies so people can join, meaning i can't pin other casts to the channel for visibility. · notifications are easy to miss: i never check the channel notifications tab, a friend had to message me to finally see and accept their invite. · posting friction: tried posting in /nature yesterday but wasn't able to since i wasn't a member — the process of going to the channel, finding how to join, then coming back to write the cast again is too much, so it's easier to cast no-channel instead. am i doing something wrong here, or is this a shared experience? i miss the old farcaster, where i could just explore and post freely in different channels.

Based take I agree. Copying in @pichi bc she has some Gud takes/consolidates sentiment My biggest is the last one about /nature. Posting in channels should always be simple. At a bear min you can post there and once approved it is shown in the channel instead of no feed

To the bigger question, it’s still weird. Unless a channel has a clear and easy way to onboard I don’t bother. I also left a bunch of public unmoderated channels because it’s just spam. It’s an impossible problem to solve without even harsher spam filters. Channel membership solves spam for sure but since each channel is different, it’s hard to know the rules. When I did a poll, 70% of people said they cast mainly to home now. It was a small sample size.

that's true, definitely a hard problem to fix.

I don’t envy the team on this one. All my channels are smol and cozy and occasionally the bots and automated accounts target them and it’s a mess.
