To create a channel you need to click on the plus `+` button that is alongside the channel search bar.

This will open a pop up, and there you can set the name of that channel, if it is public or private, set it to read-only and invite users.
This will open a pop up, and there you can set the name of that channel, if it is public or private, set it to read-only, broadcast it and invite users.

Read only channels, messages can only be posted by people with the right permission. Users can react to messages in this Good for announcements, voting channels and such.

Broadcasted channels will behave like read only channels, with only users with the right permission being able to post there. The differences to a read only channel are:

- Users without permission (the same one to post on read only channels) inside this channel wont be able to see each other in the user list.
- Users without permission won't be able to react to messages.
- On every message posted on this channel will have a reply button that redirects the user to a direct message with the user that posted the message, having a reply to the message clicked already ready on the message box.
- This channel cannot be converted to a normal or read only channel again.
