Tips For Using Castbox's Community Tab
Hi Castboxers, here are some tips for you to use the in-app Community tab:
Make
sure to use hashtags when you write a comment or make a new post. This makes it
easier to find similar types of content, and also to search for your specific
content.
You
can also tap the blue Hashtags. This will take you to all the comments and
posts that contain that Hashtag.
You
can also follow Hashtags. When you find a Hashtag that interests you, make sure
you follow it! They will be saved under the “Followed” section in the Community
tab.
When
you are in the “Followed” section, only comments and posts for those Hashtags
will be shown, giving more targeted and relevant content to you.
Also,
if you follow lots of Hashtags, you can favorite the ones that you like the
most (they will be starred).
Our
internal ranking algorithm for posts and comments is a mixture of replies,
likes, and date of the post / most recent replies. Posts that show up under
“Hot” are likely recent posts that have a lot of discussion among users. Try
thinking of interesting topics of discussion to improve the visibility of your
post / comment.
3.
Replying
You
can reply to either a post or a comment underneath that post. Currently, only
the direct person that you reply to will be notified in-app. So make sure if
you are writing a reply that you reply to the correct person.
4.
Political Topics
People
tend to get heated when discussing politics. We understand. However, this does
not give you the right to attack or threaten others when they have different
opinions.
If
you cannot control yourself, please refrain from posting or commenting on
political topics. It hurts the community, and doesn’t resolve anything. Your
comments may be deleted for inappropriate language.
We value mature and healthy discussions. People’s viewpoints can be
discussed and refuted, but don’t attack anyone personally.
