I frequently move between very loud and quiet environments at work while needing to communicate with people. I highly recommend a comfortable pair of electronic ear muffs. Both Walker and Howard Leight make good pairs that won’t break the bank. If the battery dies, you just don’t get the “passthrough” effect and they’re just traditional ear muffs.

Personally I think it’s because Lemmy users tend to lean towards an older/more mature audience; and that crowd tends to comment less often in general.
