      Walkie-talkie mode sounds cool as hell. Why does no one else have this.

        Mute with spacebar is quite often available, which is pretty similar if you think about it.

        Mumble obviously also has a push to talk option.

          I just want my phone to be a trek communicator. One bluetooth ear in. Tap it to radio message my partner.

            I think the new Pine64 earbuds will allow you to configure something like that. AFAIK they have a user customizable button on them.

              That actually sounds like an amazing power combo that I didn’t know I needed in my life.

        The article says otherwise.

        We’ve built Video Rooms backed by Jitsi […]. Once Element Call is out of beta, we’ll pivot Video Rooms to use that instead
