My man 
The restrictions have been crazy tbh

i hate not being able to see my friend's replies to my casts, only because they're not members of the channel i casted in...didn't know it worked like that.

I think if users are friends then replies should be allowed in a channel. This would allow that user to be seen by channel mods and possibly be extended an invite. Overall engagement would go up, without a risk of spam.

1. You follow me because I give important updates but think my political takes are bad

2. You have a cozy political channel with your friends

3. I reply trolling you

Owners wanted control over who can reply. Consistent feedback for the last year.

I would also argue this is way less common than you having a friend that is legit and would post amazing content that the community is now missing out on.

It would need to be a two way relationship. Mods could still ban your friend if they reply with garbage. It would just be a setting channel operators could opt into. My guess is many channel operators would opt into this flow.
