About

Never listen to the thundering sounds of someone typing on a video call ever again!

Well, nobody who talks to you will have to listen to it. If you don’t want to listen to it either, encourage your friends and colleagues to install Hushboard. While you’re typing, your mic is muted. When you stop, it unmutes again.

That’s it.

Hushboard. Sssshhhh.

(note: does not work in Wayland sessions; hushboard requires an Xorg session.)
