I spoke with @javabu.eth on how he runs the /politics channel using @cura. The channel is one of the most popular on Farcaster, with over 12,000 people following it. He kindly shared how he: - initially grew the channel - manages membership with NFTs - rewards people on the leaderboard - launched a mini app If you're managing a channel or thinking of starting one, bookmark this cast. There's a lot to learn from our full conversation. We recorded it so everyone can benefit. See the comments for the full video.

hm.. surprisingly, I didn't notice that the channel had grown so much In general, I'm even afraid to post my political views, because this is the path to quarrels and shit, especially in my country, when I am between two warring countries and you can guess which ones

Yes it's not easy to share anywhere these days, which makes the channel's moderation even more impressive at its size. I also think this is the biggest reason we don't often see more comments underneath the casts in politics. There are probably a lot of silent readers.

Well, in other social networks, heated discussions immediately flare up, people still want to speak out! It just takes time for people to find their interlocutor under the comments of the casts, since basically, let's be honest, top influencers with a large number of followers still rarely answer, but answer only mainly to their already established friends and the same top influencers, and these top influencers themselves, in general, still do not comment often, so it turns out that both early and now I often see that user comments remain unanswered, so there is no motivation to reply, and people are not yet used to seeing Farcaster as the main social network for expressing their thoughts and reading comments under posts! Everyone is basically chasing the statements of top influencers! Therefore, it seems to me that in such an early stage of a social network like Farcaster, there is a large area of responsibility for the tops to ignite these discussions under their casts, and not to chase the next creation of a cast.
