+## Why does the UI show "Channel" instead of "Stream"?
+
+Starting from a specific Zulip feature level, the term "Stream" has been renamed to "Channel" to align with modern terminology. If you are using an older Zulip server, the UI will still display "Stream" to match the server's terminology. This ensures consistency between the Zulip Terminal and the web or mobile apps.
