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.

MODERATORS
Jitsi, Matrix and SimpleX are cross-platform.
You can't have e2e encrypted anything without identifying information about unique users. Nothing reasonably secure anyway.
SimpleX does it but is missing push-to-talk, no email, no phone number, no username or password, no sign up needed.

SimpleX does it
No, it doesn't. It has IDs for unique users, but tries to mitigate the risks by keeping a separate set of IDs to use with each contact. (This is like having a separate Matrix/Jabber/Signal/whatever account for each contact.)
