Push To Talk for Google Meet™

Hold <space> in Google Meet to talk instead of fumbling around trying to mute and unmute
What is Push To Talk for Google Meet™?
The 'Push To Talk for Google Meet™' Chrome extension transforms your Google Meet experience by enabling a push-to-talk functionality, effectively turning your space bar into a 'talk' key during meetings. Hold the space bar to talk and release to return to mute, thereby eliminating the need to manually mute and unmute. This automatic muting feature, reminiscent of walkie-talkie communication, provides a seamless and less distracting communication experience during Google Meet sessions. The extension can be easily installed and activated. It also offers the flexibility of setting up a custom hotkey for its activation, making it a valuable tool for optimal virtual communication.

How do you change the hotkey? There is no option on mine?
by Joseph Bergen, 2021-11-18

Using space bar for push to talk makes me think you never actually used push to talk, you bind that to one of the function keys not a key that does something unintentionally while you're trying to talk.
