Abstract: Approaches for facilitating selective user moderation of social media channels are disclosed. In certain implementations, one or more posts from a user for submission to a channel directed to a topic may be received. An event relating to the topic may be identified. A predetermined time period associated with the event may be identified. At least some access privileges of the user for the channel may be disabled for at least a portion of the predetermined time period based on a determination that the one or more posts are indicative of one or more undesired characteristics. In some implementations, the predetermined time period may include a first time period before the event begins, a second time period during which the event occurs, a third time period after which the event ends, or other time period associated with the event.

Abstract: Approaches for distributing and optimizing quality and quantity of social media posts or other posts are disclosed. In certain implementations, a post may be received from a user for submission to a channel directed to a topic. A stream flow value may be determined for the channel. The stream flow value may be based on a volume of posts associated with the channel. A rating value associated with the user submitting the post may be determined. A scope of distribution of the post to one or more users accessing the channel may be determined based on the stream flow value and the rating value. In some implementations, channel instances corresponding to the channel may be provided on different device components. At least one channel instance of the channel instances on which to make the post available may be determined based on the stream flow value and the rating value.
