Channels are evolving ✨ As our Foundation focuses our efforts to grow the Social Web in new areas, our 62-topical Channels will be phasing out to be replaced by tags.pub. We encourage all Channel users to join the tags.pub project by opting in and sharing with hashtags. For more details on how to use tags.pub, please check out: https://tags.pub/ Please share this message so all Channel users are aware and so that we can continue growing discovery on the Social Web. #Channels #Newsmast
