Well, for my part I agree with the suggestion provided by Ed. I think it
is more intuitive. Maybe other users can contribute their opinion.

experience with the software
Well
To implement this I need to swap 2 lines of code
No problem at all if community will approve this

Hello everyone,
I love this software 5.0.0 M3 (running on Ubuntu 18.04) with KMS 6.13
A few questions and an important suggestion:
1) I have been unable to install this on debian buster so that it works
well - can this be done? How? We'd like to be able to use this on buster.
2) When having inexperienced users test our M3 version (and when testing
the M4 version -the same problem exists):
The left-hand user column symbols for camera and microphone indicate to-do
action links, and I think they should indicate actual states - because this
is more intuitive and is what users expect.
So, I suggest instead of showing a microphone with a red circle with a
white "x" in it in M3 or an orange old-fashion mic symbol with a slash
through it in M4 to indicate that the mic is "ON" and that you have to
click on it to turn it "OFF", I suggest that exactly the opposite be shown:
the actual state of the feature - that a slash through a symbol (perhaps in
grey to double indicate it is off) indicates that it is "OFF" and a colored
on symbol or icon without a slash indicates that it is "ON"
The same suggestion for the camera.
95 % of user problems that I have encountered result from this. Users see
something with a slash through it and they think that means that it is
"OFF" or not activated. Why not give users what they expect intuitively
rather than force them to behave different than usual for this app?
I love this app/project, and this is just a friendly suggestion, not
criticism.
best to all
Ed
