allow users to 'follow' others to create a filtered feed view.
Currently we have an in-built equality of posts which can become inefficient with high volume.
Recognizing the importance of hubs in scale-free network growth, we could allow for a filtered view of the main town-hall feed, where you just saw the posts (and related threads) of those you choose to follow.
One could also toggle back to the unfiltered view, but allowing people to cluster could make high volume teams more manageable.
Unlike Facebook, the user would remain in control - with no algorithm and the ability to toggle back to the unfiltered view.

Mattermost has a feature to "Favorite" channels, including 1-1 and group channels - does this describe what you are looking for?

I like this idea too. If I come back to my group after a few days, I want to ensure I can easily see new posts from people I follow, rather than attempt to catch up on everything which may be impossible. Regardless of which channel, so for all channels.
