#2This made me do a double take: "The key board on Macs has artificial clacking?" but of course this actually mutes your microphone, not your keyboard.

#6This is genius but I usually mute myself before and after speaking. Great idea though for us mechanical switch folks.

#7A solution like rtx voice seems a better way to go tbh. For those who don't know, it's an nvidia thing that uses a GPU accelerated (ofc, it's nvidia) neural network to denoise voice calls, from all kinds of noise, not just typing. It's really pretty impressive, here's a demo: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=uWUHkCgslNE
I wish it wasn't proprietary though (and worse, hardware specific). And windows only of course.

I wondered the same. It looks a bit like Typora, but I think it's something else...

Krisp uses ML to remove background noises like dog barking, crispy chips and such.
Comes with a subscription model for unlimited use though.

I use Mute Me[1] for this with the shortcut in the Touch Bar to mute and unmute quickly. I'm not sure if Unclack offers a Touch Bar shortcut (or keyboard shortcute) because reaching out to the Menu bar all the time is annoying
