Persistent Follower-Only Chat status indicator
Allow the "Follower-only Chat (!)" warning to be shown on ALL channels, regardless of you currently following the channel or not following it.
Currently, you only see this notice when you do not follow the channel that is using Follower-only chat. Upon following, this warning/notice goes away forever.
This creates two issues:
Streamers very often forget their chat is in follower-only mode for days or weeks because there's no visual indicator on the webpage UI unless you click into the cog-wheel menu. This may cause reduced chat activity or leave a bad impression for new viewers.
When a streamer who is ending their broadcast goes to look for a channel to raid, they may accidentally select a channel (that they already follow) with a lengthy follower-only mode enabled, which will nullify or significantly reduce the "success of the raid".

Agree with this, have raided many people that I followed which had follow-only on, or even the streamer itself doesn't know it's on and potentially loses chatters because of this.
It could be an option to turn off, if you don't like/want it, so it pleases everyone. -
