Why do some channels not allow you post in them?

ICYMI @dwr.eth dropped tons of alpha on the Official Channels Day livestream 

It’s clear he recognizes channels are a valuable community building tool on Farcaster. However, he believes discovery and retention aren’t working well with the current model. 

He enthusiastically shared his thoughts on how LLMs could help surface conversations via topics which could then be used to drive engagement to likeminded people in subgroups and communities. 

He acknowledged the challenge is unlearning old models and behaviors, helping people on Farcaster feel as part of the process, and moving forward together. 

Do you think AI can help us innovate new models for engagement or are we better off with human curated experiences?

most require an invite to become a member who can post. they used to be wide open but it made them unwieldy with spam/random posts.

I suspect channels will continue to evolve over the next 1-2 years, they have been sorta neglected recently.
