About Google Meet and its shortcuts
Google Meet runs in a browser, so its keyboard is short by necessity: microphone, camera, raising a hand, and opening the panels. The microphone and camera commands are the two that matter, and they are worth muscle memory before your next call.
Because Meet is a web page, your browser and your operating system both get the keys first, and some combinations do nothing while focus is in the chat box. Available controls also depend on your role in the meeting.
