usually if it doesn't have good working drivers on BSD, there's a good reason and it's probably better that you didn't use that hardware in the first place. if it was a well-established, reliable adapter then typically it would already have a driver.

to even get that far to have to say that, they would first have to prove negligence by showing proof that you knew it was happening and did nothing to try to stop it.

while I'm not disagreeing with you, I do think there's a big problem with trigger happy mods not being tolerant of opinions they don't like.

looking at your post history I completely understand why... I would ban you too if my rules included being nice

Oh that's nasty. I bet a quick github search would turn up some people making the same mistake.

I feel like this violates the Unix philosophy. I think a dedicated program that handles unmuting the mic would be a better solution that solves this issue more generally.

To be fair I don't use either of those things, so I would not have even thought to look there.

You need to define a threat model before you go any further.
