The Issue

Similar to how we currently fetch featured content, we will be implementing an endpoint (https://github.com/lbryio/internal-apis/issues/262 - internal issue) which lists suggested channels for users to subscribe/view content from. I've also suggested a community-driven category be added to the endpoint which would list channels with the highest claim bids. The endpoint for featured subs will have a description

Since we don't have channel metadata, we'd need a clever way to engage the user/show the suggestions.

For a user without any subscriptions, this could be shown when they enter the subscriptions page. For those with subs already, could show it as a compact view near the top or have an option to view the suggestions.

We could also incorporate this as part of the first run experience to drive exploration/engagement.

@alyssaoc I'll let you determine if we should be created an Epic for this as a separate issue, or possibly turn this one into an Epic
