God, I just wish they'd add a fucking Push to Talk option to a client... Any client ๐Ÿ˜…

Lol that's an absolutely fair request. Have you asked on Element github? Sounds like a Mich needed feature.

The issue has been there for ages. Sadly gamers aren't really Element's target audience.

Makes more sense to wait for MatrixRTC to enter the spec cleanly, then wait for a custom Discord-like client to implement it.

Does it even have push to mute with a keybind? It feels like their voice/video chat is super feature bare lol

[โ€“] derin@lemmy.beru.co 1 points 1 month ago

It doesn't.

It has features for video/voice calling - E.g. Background blurring and stuff like that. It just lacks the stuff that would make it usable for gaming.
