Exposing your microphone to countless strangers could in theory have worse outcomes than “woops” based off numerous factors, such as what you’re doing/talking about/listening to and how long it takes you to notice that you are broadcasting the audio of the room that you’re in.

I use push to talk because I'm considerate.

Keep your mic muted if this is a concern.

Discord makes it clear when you're in a call.

I simply do not believe in adding friction because of bad users.

Push-to-talk is literally adding friction because of “bad users”.

If everybody were “considerate” then a simple toggle wouldn’t cause any issues.

Push-to-talk is a feature, not friction, as far as I'm concerned. I refuse to use apps that only have auto-record.

[jrflowers]

Friction is not an automatic bad thing. The fact that you have to continue pressing down the button to keep using the feature is friction to stop you from unintentionally using the feature

There isn't a single person on this planet that has a good voice activated mic setup unfortunately.

Also once the session is up, it's too late for your purposes. PTT or "just don't talk" is not a solution at all.

Necro, sry.

Revolt has your mic muted by default.
