Allow muting a person only for me
Sometimes I am in a meeting where one of the persons in the meeting is actually near me in the world outside the screen. In this case the sound is a bit maddening since there is a small delay between...
oh another internet karen. ffs...
costinel2081 I'm really sorry you feel that way. That was not my intention. I can tell you it really sucks having a name that people use as an adjective - especially when it isn't who I am. I feel for your situation. I think everyone has been there - whether at your desk in a bullpen or in a conference room that doesn't have mics setup. It stinks. Adam_Zovits mentions that there is other web conferencing software that allows individuals to mute other individuals from them. Which software does this? I am interested and would like to suggest this to the people I know on the Teams engineering team.
1- I have low experience with Zoom and none with Webex. So don't misunderstand my nonmention wrong: I just don't know, whether Zoom or Webex have this feature.
2- I'm not convinced that you got the point: All of your hints missed the point and did not solve the issue (voice isolation, muting your own "speaker" solve other problems, not the one mentioned here.)
3- There are more links:

https://feedbackportal.microsoft.com/feedback/idea/47622029-4fbe-ed11-83ff-000d3a1f8608Many people need this feature. The problem is real.
- Ascendor thank you. So Zoom and Webex are not on your list. Teams pretty much seems to try to keep up or pass those two services and doing what these other services do would put Teams higher up on the food chain. Thank you for sharing these. I DO get the point. I will share this with some folks I know. Do we have a link for the feedback portal that we can all vote for that I missed along the way here?
It looks like we all need to vote here and get others to vote here to move this feature up the flagpole for consideration.

Pretty sure there's more. It's a standard feature for years. Hence the many people requesting it. It solves a real world problem, even if you don't get the point yet.
