If the only option is this or nothing changes, then maybe yes? Channels as they are rn are a dead end. But, as others put it, this would almost definitely kill channels. Maybe there could be another MM app dedicated just for channels? Could be a valuable forcing function for fleshing out the protocol, but I understand the hesitation of bifurcating focus. (I'd prefer the main client was channel focused but I assume that's not what's working for onboarding rn.) I think that sovereign channels is the one credible path of keeping high quality signal if Farcaster succeeds at x100 growth (rather than degrading into a cesspool like every other scaled social network). Does that mean it's a good problem to have later? I dunno. I'd rather it was part of the growth strategy from the start.
