i'm a little confused as to why channel operators have been deprecated - if i need a stream to remain hot (using a channel), i can't use Flow and its operators
oh wait
consumeAsFlow
still maintains the "hot"ness

receiveAsFlow
if you want to permit multiple collection

Yes, you can convert channel as flow. But flow also can be created hot, thought, now it limited, until we got SharedFlow

StateFlow is also hot for example, but works only for some particular use cases
