Show HN: I built an app for when I talk too much in online meetings
While I do occasionally encounter people rambling on about nothingburgers in meetings, I get more irked that the status quo at my workplace is people just sit there silently, contributing nothing in medium sized (6-12 people) meetings. It just seems like nobody wants to risk saying something that might be challenged or "seem dumb", as if they are all suffering from imposter syndrome.Recently a fellow developer was doing a demo of an automated UI testing suite and how it could apply to our product, and when it came time for questions or to show any sort of interest at all, its just crickets. I feel obligated to participate in situations like these, reach for questions or at least acknowledge other's hard work, because nobody else seems to want to. For me its frustrating, I wish I were surrounded by people that are more willing to give their 2 cents, even if it means a little bit longer meeting, rather than staring at a sea of blank faces that don't bother to queue their mic for the entire meeting.
