Feed Experiment: More Channel Casts You'll see more casts from channels you follow in your feed. Warpcast is smarter about identifying popular casts in channels and bringing them to your home feed. 50% of users will start seeing this today, and if successful will roll out to everyone next week. h/t @akshaan

Daily rant: why do people like iMessage? - 2nd worst in spam (after telegram) - doesn't sync contacts and some conversations to desktop - lets one person have many identities (phone + email) - almost no one has pfps - tapbacks are boomer I get why people use it, but why do some people actually prefer it

What are the most high signal channels you follow? High signal meaning that if you were to open their main feed right now, almost every cast is a banger.
