Airpods might be totally applicable here:

>When your AirPods Pro are connected to your device, you can use Conversation Boost to focus on the person talking in front of you. This makes it easier to hear in a face-to-face conversation.

librepods appears to support this feature

Ohh, that is interesting. I’ll research this, thank you.

Hah, this made me find the subreddit /r/AudiProcDisorder where people discuss those and others for exactly that reason.

edit: Damn, tool requires root because of a bug :/

On Linux it works out of the box as I understood. So maybe time for a linux phone? ^^
