# Community Feed

> The channel where the PANTA team publishes platform updates and administrators share important company announcements with the workspace.

## What It Is

The Community Feed is the announcement channel inside PANTA OS. Here  two kinds of updates are published: **Platform Updates** about PANTA OS itself, and **Company Updates** about your organization. Every user with workspace access can read the feed and like individual posts. Company Updates can be drafted by admins.

Unlike a typical social feed, the Community Feed is read first for end users. Company Updates are created exclusively by administrators through the Admin Panel under Community Feed. There are no comments, no mentions, and no user posts. Users can like posts and pin posts relevant to them.

## Why It Matters

Important AI announcements should not get lost in email or chat. The Community Feed gives them a dedicated home inside the same workspace where users already work, with a structure that separates platform news from company news.

<CardGroup cols={2}>
  <Card title="A single source for announcements" icon="megaphone">
    Platform updates and company news live in one place, inside the workspace where users already are. No second tool, no separate email thread.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Audience targeting" icon="users">
    Each post can be targeted to all users or to specific teams. Marketing only updates do not reach Finance, and vice versa.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Clear separation of topics" icon="layers">
    Two top level post types and four tabs keep platform news, company news, and pinned highlights from blending together.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Lightweight engagement" icon="thumbs-up">
    Likes give administrators a signal of what resonates without turning the feed into a discussion thread.

## Tips and Best Practices

* Use audience targeting when an announcement is not universally relevant. A Finance only update on the Latest tab of every other team is noise.
* Pin sparingly. Pinned posts lose their value if every post is pinned.
* Save longer announcements as a draft first. The editor is rich text, but writing in place under time pressure rarely produces the cleanest copy.

<Tip>
  The Community Feed is a read first channel for end users. If you want two way conversation, use chat. If you want company wide visibility for a fixed message, use Community.
