Ah, yes, of course. D as in mute.

M is taken by minimise, hence the next closest thing is D (for deaf).

But ⌘D is also 'add bookmark' on Mac, at least. So depending on which UI element inside Chrome is focussed, it may not do what you want either.

I've been using this extension: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/google-meet-push-t...

Nice, thanks. I have a lot of Meets hanging around in my bookmarks thanks to the focus being slightly wrong when I press command-D.

What would be the logic behind “deaf”? That “mute” is a homonym/polyseme of a word for a disability, so let’s just use the first letter of any disability?

Would it be less arbitrary to add another modifier to the shortcut, rather than use "D"?
