Channel gating ideas

People are going to get very creative.

Really excited about this, happy to riff with anyone on ideas!

But ultimately ofc it’s up to the channel owner paying for the channel to decide how they want to grow and best scale their communities.

Excited to see what will be built, there’s SO much room for creativity and outside the box thinking for the future of curation.

There are channels that are more niche (ex. creators, brand, DAO-specific) where gating makes sense, but the major channels (ex. Farcaster, music, etc.) that we have the most visibility to should, and I’m assuming, will likely, remain open to all.

I think this is great but worry about how we will bring new people into the fold? 🤔
