Looking for channel owners that spend at least 5 hours a week on growing and managing their channels. I had a group of people like this last fall, but a bunch of those people no longer seem to be actively working on their channel. Want to find the people that are *currently* committed to channels. Please reply here if that’s you.

Roughly when did you feel they were deprioritized?

when you said they were :) buoy > dwr.eth > "channels" many many examples of you saying they're hard, didn't facilitate growth, and are no longer a priority. feel like you guys made a valiant effort post-farcon 2 that petered out around summer/fall 24'

Well we did a huge revamp push in fall 2024 -- and that removed mod work but most people didn't want to invest the time to keep growing them in the membership model.

I'm with @nonlinear.eth - I stopped putting time into moderating and curating /slowcore-hq because channels were de-prioritized, and because we didn't have a sustainable economic model so we struggled with moderator attrition. I wrote a long post (pinned in the channel) about why the mods decided to put /slowcore-hq into extended hibernation. It's a small cozy corner, but it's well-loved by its followers. I'd gladly invest time to revive it and develop a membership model for it if (as Jonny said) I knew it wouldn't be wasted effort.

+1, would happily jump back into moderating /frontend (and plenty of other niches) knowing they will be well-supported technically and exposure-wise.
