Can we mute participants and not see their video?

FYI this is when we are participants, not host.

Hello!

As a participant you do not have control of other participants video. You can however, change your view to Active Speaker which would then only show you the person currently speaking.

Yeah I assumed this is an issue with being a participant. That is not a solution however.

How about an ability to NOT see participants video feed. Is that a possibility?

Unfortunately not from the perspective of a participant. A host could turn on what's called Focus Mode and that would allow them to see all participants but the participants would not be able to see each other.
