Depends, I have a very good boom mic plugged into a solid interface that has essentially no background hiss or noise.

The software noise cancelling like Krisp in Discord or this Nvidia software is really nice because it stops outside noises like dogs barking, keyboard keys, etc from coming through.

With Krisp enabled in discord I can eat chips with voice activation enabled and no one can tell, and no one can hear my dog bark occasionally even if I'm talking while it happens.

And don’t forget the bane of working from home in the suburbs: leaf blowers.

It seems at least once per day there is an active leaf blower in my neighborhood vicinity. Same goes for my colleagues.

Noise cancellation is great for, well, cancelling their noise.

The worst, especially where I live in the SW. Most of the trees are evergreen so there was no relief during the winter. My office window overlooks five neighbor yards and I have each one's lawn care schedule on my calendar.
