Google Meet Default Account: Streamline Multiple Accounts

'Google Meet Default Account' is a Chrome extension that lets users who have multiple Google accounts set a chosen account as default specific for Google Meet links. This enables the use of Google Meet with a work account while maintaining a personal account as browser default. Options also allow for the extension to override the authUser at all times and remove the authUser parameter for link-sharing.
