Non-conditional Channel Following
Remove the restriction to Partner, Verified, and Developer servers and make Channel Following global.
This could and should be a powerful tool to help all users manage productivity. For example, Twitch users could use Channel Following to create a feed of "Going Live" notifications for streams they want to keep track of, which is clumsy and difficult under current options (if you don't see the notification when it happens you have to check each server individually). This is what inspired the idea.
Channel Following in practice is not a feature that helps the server owner. It is a feature that helps server members stay up-to-date with friends and creators. There is no moderation reason to restrict access, either.
In fact, moderators could use this feature to create a mods-only channel where all messages from select channels or multiple servers they may mod/own are neatly in one place. The ways to creatively use this are numerous. Think of what could be done with bots! This could be huge for Discord.
It should reasonably be available to all servers.
Currently, I am in a total of 37 servers, not including my own, and only two of them are Partnered or Verified and have access to Channel Following. Your guidelines for Partner acceptance show that typically a Partner must be near the following metrics:
These are huge and rare numbers that make Channel Following a largely non-existent feature to what I'm sure is a gigantic portion of users who, like myself, do not join mostly huge servers by viral creators where it's too busy to easily form personal connections or even follow a conversation.
If Discord is at all interested in driving app engagement this is a no-brainer in the absence of some fluke issue that could only be apparent internally. Please consider.

Does this mean
1: both the followed server and the server being followed must be Partner, Verified, or Developer
2: only the server being followed must be Partner, Verified, or Developer
3: only the server that's following needs to be Partner, Verified, or Developer
And how do you know if a server is Partner, Verified, or Developer?0
